How to make Coconut Milk | Homemade Recipe of Fresh Coconut milk | Easiest Coconut Milk Recipe from fresh Coconut..

Hello Friends,

Are you looking for a super easy recipe of homemade coconut milk! If yes then your search ends right here.. In today's DIY post, I'm going to share as how easy it is to prepare a coconut milk at home from fresh coconut.

Coconut is not very regular ingredient in my cooking.. So that's the reason, I always go with shop bought coconut milk of very famous brand. But it is very costly, for 200 ml - we have to pay 70-75 rupees and after unpacking we have to finish it very quickly else it gets spoiled very fast. In fact, my packaged one also got spoiled and I felt really bad.. It's like wasting our hard earned money. I truly believe and love to follow these rules of Warren Buffett Rule no. 1 - Never lose money. Rule no. 2 Never forget rule no. 1. Another quote which is my all time favorite and makes me guilty whenever I get tempted to buy something which is not relevant in the long run... 'If you make a habit of buying things you don't need, you'll be soon selling things you do".

If you have a good quality mixer grinder, then it's like sone pe suhaaga.. If you don't have a good blender or mixer grinder, don't worry, just grate it and follow the process which I'm going to share now...

◾Break the coconut into pieces - remove the meat - cut it into thin slices or roughly chop it in small pieces.

Pour through a fine sieve or cheesecloth. Repeat the same process third time and discard the coconut residue. Our coconut milk is ready.
