Sweet Dessicated Coconut 干煸椰丝

Homemade dessicated coconut prepared from grated fresh coconut toasted in a dry pan to golden and fragrant. It can be used in rendang/dry curry dishes, or topping for bread or cookies 🍛🍞🍪 

As it is quite easy to prepare the dessicated coconut, so I just prepare a small quantity enough for my rendang dish. Use it while it is fresh 🌴
