Salty Fried Coconut Strips (or “Cocoly Nut…ish!”)

Added on August 22nd, 2012 by our friend from http://strictlypaleoish.wordpress.com/

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!

  2. 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.
