Using fresh coconut for dishes like this will enhance the flavour immeasurably, and you’ll find that many greengrocers and supermarkets now sell plastic bags of shredded or grated fresh coconut in their Asian ingredient section. Another option is to buy a halved coconut at the greengrocer or Asian food store, remove and shred the flesh then freeze what you don’t use here in the compartments of an ice-cube tray. After they’re frozen, save them in an air-tight plastic bag in your freezer for future use.
