Coconut Cream: An Indian recipe for a coconut cream made from coconut flesh that can be used as the basis for a range of Indian, South-East Asian, Caribbean and African recipes, shown mounded in a dish.
Ingredients:
1 coconut
water
Method:
Crack the coconut and add the water to a pan; if there is little juice inside the coconut add a little water to increase the volume. If the juice is too salty then discard and use just water instead (about 300ml is what you're looking for). Grate the flesh of the coconut and place in the pan with the milk/water.
Slowly bring the mixture to the boil then remove from the heat and allow to cool. Once cold, strain the mixture through a double layer of muslin or cheesecloth. Store the resultant cream in the fridge until needed. It should last well for a week.
