Make Your Own Coconut Milk


  • Yield: just over 1 litre 1x

Description

Coconut Milk made from just organic desiccated coconut and water.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups organic desiccated coconut
  • 1 litre water from the kettle

Instructions

THERMOMIX METHOD

Boil the kettle, place coconut and the hot water into the mixing bowl and leave to sit for 20 minutes to soften.

Blend 2 min / speed 9.  Strain through a piece of cheesecloth or clean tea towel.  Wring it really tight and keep squeezing to get all the milk out.

Store in sealed glass jars or bottles in the fridge for up to 5 days or freezer for up to 3 months.

NON THERMOMIX METHOD

Boil the kettle, place coconut and the hot water in a high-powered blender and leave to sit for 20 minutes to soften.

Blend for 2 minutes then strain through a piece of cheesecloth or clean tea towel.  Wring it really tight and keep squeezing to get all the milk out.

Store in sealed glass jars or bottles in the fridge for up to 5 days or freezer for up to 3 months.

Notes

You will need to regularly shake it in the fridge as the fats in the milk will rise to the top.

The leftover pulp can be used to make bliss balls or Coconut Flour, I will post recipes shortly.
