   • Squeeze the paste through cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel to extract the coconut milk.
   • Allow the coconut milk to stand for a few hours until the cream rises to the top.
   • Heat the cream in a pan on low heat until the moisture evaporates, and the oil separates.
   • Strain the oil to remove any solids and store it in a clean, airtight container.
3. Fermentation Method:
   • Grate the flesh of mature coconuts and blend it with warm water to make a thick paste.
   • Place the paste in a clean, airtight container and allow it to ferment for 24-48 hours at room temperature.
   • After fermentation, squeeze the paste through cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel to extract the coconut milk.
   • Heat the coconut milk in a pan on low heat until the moisture evaporates, and the oil separates.
   • Strain the oil to remove any solids and store it in a clean, airtight container.
