Paso 01

Step 01

Well friends, to start it is important that we cut our coconuts and remove their shells and we do it well, when they drain the water we are going to grate them with our hand grater on the very fine side, we grate and completely grate our coconut and we are going to pour it into a cup.

Paso 02

Step 02

We are going to put our grated coconut in a pot and add the sugar, all the water and the essence. The essence of course is so that it has a more delicious flavor and when cooking the coconut its original flavor is not lost. We will only add a little bit to preserve the flavor.

Paso 03

Step 03

We will bring our coconut to a slow heat and we will be stirring it for 30 minutes. Our coconut will begin to become a homogeneous mixture and we will not stop stirring it while we cook it. The sugar together with the water will thicken and form a sticky mixture.

We stir well until it comes away from the sides and a lump begins to form only in the center of the same mixture, when it is a somewhat golden tone we remove from the heat, beat for about 5 more minutes and we are going to pour it into a flat plate and spread it with a spoon and crush it with a lid quickly until it dries, we will let it rest outside for about 10 minutes and we cut it into squares or triangles, we put it in the refrigerator for another 10 minutes and that's it.
