Cook Healthy, Eat Healthy

When it comes to cooking for your family, you will no doubt want to whip up flavourful and delicious dishes. But on top of how they taste, you also want to make sure that what you cook with is going to be nutritious and beneficial for health, especially when it comes to the ingredients you use.

It is a common belief that coconut milk is unhealthy due to its high saturated fat levels, but recent studies have shown that its nutrients outweigh the bad stuff, and that coconut milk is reportedly good for the body’s immune system and heart health, in healthy amounts.

With a delectable flavour and consistency that is ideal for curries and desserts, Ayam Brand™ Coconut Milk is also made using a careful selection of ingredients, and most importantly it does not contain carrageenan. A commonly-used food additive, carrageenans can be harmful for digestive health and can lead to inflammatory bowel diseases.

With Ayam Brand™ Coconut Milk, you can serve up flavoursome dishes with the confidence that they are good for everyone in the family too – so how about starting with the yummy recipe here?
