What You Need:
PASTRY
  • cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ˝ cup chilled, unsalted butter
  • 2 cup chilled shortening
  • ˝ cup cold water

    FILLING
  • 3 cups peeled & grated coconut
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 cups water

  • How To Cook:
    1. Combine flour and salt. Cut in butter and shortening until mixture is crumbly.

    2. Sprinkle cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, over mixture, stirring lightly after each addition until pastry is just moist enough to hold together.

    3. Shape into 2 disks; wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour in the refrigerator.

    4. Prepare filling by combining ingredients in a saucepan.

    5. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer about 10 minutes or until liquid evaporate and mixture begins to dry. Set aside to cool.

    7. Place dough into pan and fold overhang back inside and press to reinforce sides.

    8. Fill with cooled coconut mixture. Roll remaining dough and cut into strips ˝ inch wide.

    9. Lay half the strips across the filling about 1 inch apart.

    10. Lay the remaining strips crosswise to form a lattice pattern.

    11. Bake at 350°F degrees for about 45 minutes or until golden brown.
