Hi,

I use the coconut oil in place of all other oils in my cooking and baking. While I do not eat baked goods, my husband does and I feel it is beneficial for him as well.

I fry chicken in it, along with a little salt, pepper, garlic and paprika. Delicious.

Here is one of my favorite recipes.

Coconut Garlic shrimp.

1/2 lb of raw peeled tiger prawns or large shrimp, tail left on.
1 to 2 tbsp. coconut oil
2 tbsp chopped green onion.
crushed garlic to taste (the more the better in my opinion)
salt and pepper to taste.
1 to 2 tbsp lemon juice

Place 1 to 2 tbsp. of coconut oil in saute pan, over high heat. Oil should be just starting to smoke.

Add 2 tpsp chopped green onions and 1 tbsp garlic, or more to suit and salt and pepper taste.

Stir until these ingredients are just covered with the oil.

Keeping heat on high at all times, add 1/2 lb of raw tiger prawns or large shrimp, and stir until they just turn pink. Add 2 tbsps lemon or lime juice and stir quickly for about 15 to 30 seconds. Serve with Caesar salad without the croutons.

If you are cooking more than 1/2 lb, repeat until you are finished.

MMMMMMMM good!
