    LOVE THIS!!! Just need to find vegan yoghurt in Israel!!!!

      Hi Nikki! Do you have Coconut Cream in Israel? I often use coconut cream in an indian curry because it is thick and creamy. So I reckon it would work very well as a vegan yoghurt substitute. The yoghurt is only really used here to create a creamy pudding, because the dairy free milk makes it very runny on its own.
      I’ll give the coconut cream a go and let you know if its works!
