Ingredients
- 4 cups grated coconut
- 2 cups boiling water or hot milk
Directions
In a large bowl cover the grated coconut with the boiling water and let settle for 15 minutes.
Drain the coconut through the strainer, reserving the liquid. The coconut meat may be squeezed through a muslin cloth to collect the remaining liquid.
Store in a container and refrigerate. The "cream rises to the top".
