Tui La Nazi

Tui la nazi (aka coconut milk) is a very popular and delicious ingredient in the coastal regions. Here is a little "How-To" for making your own fresh coconut milk.

To start you will need a Kibao cha Mbuzi (literally means "Goat Board" but no one can tell me why) and a ripe coconut:


Step 1: Crack open the coconut


Step 2: Sit on the Kibao cha mbuzi and "scratch" the coconut. (Kuna la nazi)












Step 3: Add a little warm water to the scratched coconut

Step 4: Knead the warm water and coconut together with your hands.

Step 5: Strain



And finally you have a nice bowl of coconut milk to use when you're cooking!
