💡 Tips for Flavor & Texture

• Coconut Milk: Use full-fat for the richest Alfredo base.
• Veggie Texture: For crisp-tender vegetables, avoid overcooking during the stir-fry.
• Extra Crisp: Don’t overcrowd the potatoes—space allows for a better roast.
• Fresh Basil: Adds an essential aromatic lift—don’t skip it!
• Balancing Creaminess: Thin Alfredo with broth if it thickens too much while resting.
