About Squash in coconut milk

Squash in Coconut Milk, a beloved dish from Filipino cuisine, combines creamy, sweet flavors with earthy undertones. Traditionally made with kabocha squash, coconut milk, garlic, onions, and sometimes shrimp or pork, it’s a hearty and comforting dish. The squash is rich in fiber, vitamins A and C, and beta-carotene, which support vision health and immunity. Coconut milk adds a luscious texture and provides healthy fats like medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which may aid digestion and energy metabolism. While the dish is nutrient-dense, moderation is key due to the high calorie and fat content from the coconut milk. Often served as part of a larger meal, it pairs well with steamed rice, offering a balance of flavors and textures. Squash in Coconut Milk showcases the harmonious blending of simple, wholesome ingredients that define Filipino cooking while delivering both taste and nutrition.
