I'm new to the forum. In reading recipes for curry, I sometimes find yogurt listed as an ingredient. Yogurt is not that easy to find where I live. I was wondering if coconut milk would work as a substitute. If not, what might work?

Thanks in advance, Perry

Hello. My name is Perry. I'm an American who lives most of the year in Taiwan. I teach in a private university.

I was first introduced to curry in the early 1960s when my father (and the family followed him) was sent to England on a tour of duty.

I would first like to learn how to cook a few simple curries before trying anything more difficult. I'm not sure how successful I will be finding some of the ingredients for curry in Taiwan.

If you can point me in the right direction to finding easy recipes I'd appreciate it very much. I may also need help finding substitutes for some ingredients.

By the way, "An" is my Chinese name. Some foreigners in Taiwan need a Chinese name for salary purposes.

Good to be here, Perry
