    Freeze & Thaw Instructions

    Put baggie in the freezer and freeze up to 6 months in fridge freezer or 12 months in a deep freezer. Thaw in the fridge overnight, or a warm bowl of water for about 20 minutes, before transferring to the slow cooker, adding the canned coconut milk, and cooking on low for 8 hours.

    Special notes

    If your grocery store doesn’t carry “beef for stirfry” (or beef that is pre-cut into strips), purchase a skirt steak and slice into strips across the grain.
