  • 1 cup water or fresh milk
  • Freshly grated coconut

    • How To Cook:
    1. In a small saucepan, heat the water or milk over low heat until small bubbles form' around the edge of the pan.

    2. Place the freshly grated coconut in a large, fine sieve set over a mixing bowl and pour the water or milk over it.

    3. Without disturbing it, let the liquid drip through the coconut for about 15 minutes.

    4. Then, with the back of a large spoon, press down hard on the coconut to extract all its liquid before discarding it.

    5. Refrigerate the coconut milk tightly covered until ready to use.

    NOTE: This technique is always used precisely, whatever the ratio of grated coconut to water or fresh milk called for in a specific recipe.
