I want to share with you very simple ways to make coconut milk and coconut flakes from coconut at home. This is much cheaper than buying ready-made in the store. It is very simple to do, it takes little time!

How easy it is to open and choose a good coconut, see my last article - HERE!

Let's get started! I'll start with coconut milk.

First you need to peel the coconut - this is very easy to do with a regular peeler.

I transfer the coconut to a blender and fill it with cold clean water.

IMPORTANT! You need to take the same amount of water as coconut, only in milliliters, not grams, and plus another 20%.

EXAMPLE: I have 200 gr. coconut pulp, which means I take 240 ml. water.

I pour water into a blender and grind.

Comment!If you don't have a blender, don't be discouraged. Just grate the coconut on a fine grater, then you don't need to cut the coconut pulp into small pieces. Then just pour water over the grated coconut.

Then I take the cheesecloth, fold it into 3 layers and pour the coconut gruel into the cheesecloth, squeeze it well - this is coconut milk! Which costs just a lot of money in the store :)

There are 2 options for how to cook further:

1). Leave to dry at room temperature for about a day. It all depends on the ambient temperature.

2). Turn on the oven at 50 degrees and cook for 2 hours.
