Salty Fried Coconut Strips (or “Cocoly Nut…ish!”)
Cooking Steps
1) Whack the coconut open (as described here), and remove the flesh (I find it easiest to just keep whacking the halves a little bit more gently until you crack the shell and can break it off).
2) With a potato peeler, cut the coconut into strips.
3) Heat up the coconut oil in a large frying pan, add the coconut strips and fry until they’ve got a nice, golden color.
(I suggest frying in two batches to ensure they’re all evenly fried…)
4) Let them drain and cool down a bit on some paper towels and…here comes the craziness…sprinkle a little bit of sea salt flakes over them (yup, that’s right…no spelling error – salt on coconut)!
5) Serve and enjoy!

I make a version of this using store bought coconut flakes and bake in the oven at 400 F until toasted. They are amazingly good, and whenever I go to the movies I sneak them into the theater so I am not tempted by the popcorn smell. I bet yours are even better b/c of the extra steps.
