Thank You Ashwini.
I don’t understand step 2. Should the coconut MILK be added to the blender and strained? Step 6 says to use the 1 cup, so are we supposed to have coconut milk left over? Thanks, it sounds delicious. I look forward to trying it.
Hi Judith, i have mentioned how to make homemade coconut milk on Step 2 : Add 1/2 cup of shredded coconut pieces to a blender then add 1.5 to 2 cups of warm water to a blender and pulse for few seconds, then strain the mixture to get a coconut milk.
on Step 6: Yeah, you will get 1 cup of coconut milk.
Thank you, Would like to know how it turned out for you.
