Recipe - Coconut Milk

1 lg Coconut, grated
2 cup To 2 One half cups boiling water

Coconut Milk is Santen in Malaysia and Indonesia. Coconut Milk is Narial Ka
Doodth in India. Best made from Fresh Coconuts. Grate the flesh of one
Coconut into a bowl, pour on 22 One half cup Boiling Water, then leave to stand
30 min. Squeeze

The flesh and strain before using. This makes thick Coconut Milk, for a
thinner milk reuse the pulp and mix the result with the thick milk, or use
by itself for an even thinner Coconut Milk. I use an old Tshirt to squeeze
the Coconut flesh and strain in one operation.

Made from Dried Coconut Put 1 Cup unsweetened Dried Coconut into a blender.
Pour in about 1 One fourth Cups boiling water and blend on high speed for a couple
of minutes. Let cool for about fifteen minutes then squeeze the pulp and
strain. Makes about 1 Cup milk. To make a thinner milk reuse the pulp.
