Thicken the sauce by heating it in a saucepan before serving if you prefer. Avoid opening the crockpot too much during cooking as this will cool things down and prolong your cook time. Use the keep warm setting to make sure everything is nice and warm for serving. Add some coconut milk for a creamy coconut flavor to this dish.
