- 1 14 oz. can coconut cream
Pour coconut cream in a pot.
Start to heat the pot until the coconut cream starts to boil.
Adjust the heat to medium. Continue to cook until the liquid evaporates and residue starts to form
Gently scrape the coconut residue using a wooden or silicon spatula. Adjust the heat between low and medium. Continue to cook until the liquid completely evaporates. Note: at this point, only coconut oil and the residue is left.
Once the residue starts to get light brown, start to stir so that it gets cooked evenly. continue to cook until the color turns golden brown.
Separate the residue from the coconut oil using a kitchen sieve. The residue and "latik" is one and the same thing.
