Ingredients
Steps
-
[Tools] Fruit knife, hammer, nails, straws, blender, container, filter, stew pot; [Coconut holes] The coconut head has 3 holes, one of which is a real hole, which can be pierced with a chopstick, and the other two are fake holes. We need to open 2 holes in total so that the water can be drained out smoothly;
-
[Coconut hole opening] To open the second hole, which is a fake hole, the tools used are a hammer, a straw, and an iron nail. Note that the diameter of the iron nail is slightly larger than the diameter of the straw;
-
Drive a nail into the hole. When you feel that the nail has penetrated the coconut meat, you can pull the nail out. If it is very tight, you can use a hammer to loosen it left and right, and it will come out easily;
-
[Conduct coconut water] Use a straw. The size of the straw depends on the size of one of the holes. The straw should be tight enough to fill the hole. This is mainly to prevent the juice from leaking out from the gaps, causing waste, and to prevent contamination of the coconut water;
-
Tilt the coconut toward the side of the hole where the straw is inserted, and you will see the coconut water flow out smoothly. You only need to prepare a container;
-
The extracted coconut milk is very clear, keep it in a cool place for later use;
-
[Get the coconut meat] After the coconut juice has drained out, put the coconut in a bag, place it on the ground, tie the mouth of the bag tightly, and start to use a hammer to crack the coconut secretly;
-
Then smash it hard and break it into as small pieces as possible;
-
Next, use a fruit knife and a hammer. Place the fruit knife horizontally on the small piece of coconut meat. Tap the back of the knife lightly with the hammer, and then apply a little force to the left and right of the knife. The coconut meat will automatically separate from the coconut shell. Repeat this method until all the coconut meat is separated.
-
Wash the coconut meat. You don’t need to remove the thin coconut skin that is close to the coconut meat. It can be eaten. Divide the coconut meat into 4/5 and 1/5 parts and set aside;
-
[Crush coconut meat to make coconut milk] Use a blender to add 5/4 of the prepared coconut meat to an appropriate amount of cold boiled water to stir the minced meat. The coconut meat can be added in batches. After a while, you can see that the liquid slowly turns into milky white coconut milk;
-
【Filter coconut milk】After stirring evenly, use a filter to filter out the residue;
-
If you need to make more soup, you can add the residue to clean water and stir. The filtered slurry will still be rich. The filtered coconut milk is milky white, very delicious and has no residue;
-
Pour the coconut water just extracted from the coconut into the filtered coconut milk, which is the essence of a complete coconut. (It can be used as a drink. After refrigeration, it will be very sweet and delicious. Since it will stratify, please shake it before drinking after letting it stand.) Reserve it as a soup base for coconut stewed squab, stewed chicken, and stewed lean meat;
-
Wash and chop the pigeons into pieces and set aside;
-
Wash the lean meat and set aside as a whole piece;
-
【Put it into the stew pot】Put the coconut milk, pigeon, lean meat and remaining 1/5 of the coconut meat into the stew pot together;
-
If there are many people and the coconut milk water is not enough, you can add additional water, cover and simmer for 4 hours;
-
The coconut soup is ready, with a layer of white coconut fat spread on top, and it is fragrant;
