For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk instead of water. Add cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu for a heartier meal. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the spiciness level. Other vegetables like bell peppers, broccoli, or spinach can be added. For best results, use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
