Gita mam I'm so excited to learn this hack which served as a game changer in my kitchen work.we Bengalis also do use coconut in our various dishes,though not daily,but quite often,it adds a certain melodious dimension to our special cuisines; my family also enjoys coconut chutney regularly in breakfast for a loving south indian texture, but scraping coconut was a nightmare to me and I had to depend on my domestic help for this difficult task.But now I'm free of that stress and feeling glad and accomplished.The entire credit goes to u and only u.I have always been a great admirer of u for those practical,sustainable and what we call today a minimalist approach of ur lessons;my heartiest regards,stay safe, happy and productive.
Gita dear, I'm from Australia married to a German: we're both mad about Indian food n cooking! I embarked on your site by accident and am impressed to be able to grate coconut in my mixie. I wouldn't be able to handle the two authentic Indian graters! Buying frozen grated coconut from gourmet outlets is expensive but now I can produce my own at a fraction of the cost. Gratefully, thank you so very much. I've subscribed to your site and look forward to learning lots n lots more from you!
Thank you very much, Gita madam! I was tired of buying frozen shredded coconut from the shop. I was also tired of searching for odd contraptions on Amazon that claim to grate the fastest. I will certainly be switching to buying whole coconuts now that I know how to grate it easily. Thank you again.
Awesome tip Mam. I usually find it very difficult to grind the coconut.I used to separate from shell like this but keeping in freezer is a good trick.Thank you for sharing it. God bless you
Thank you for showing this trick! For people like me, who live abroad, have a tough time finding freshly grated coconut. I made the regular coconut chutney yesterday. It was so delicious and fresh. Glad I came across your video. I was always aching to find an effective way to grating the flesh but never knew about this trick till I saw your video.
We can even thaw coconut in room temperature water. Just take out the coconut from freezer and put it in water covered in a plastic cover for about 10mins. Then using a blunt knife itself we can remove the coconut from its shell. We have been doing this method from years and it has never failed. It'll save both time and the risk of a sharp knife.
Great tip.. In school they didn't teach me this method. I love coconut but hate to scrap it on the scrapper. Thank you mother. My life will be much easy now. God bless you🙏🙏🙏
Useful demonstration. Have seen this method used by an old relative long ago. But never got around to trying it out myself. Strangely, this demo seems to make it look easy!
I have never grated coconut at all. It was always Sumeet mixie which did it. I always removed the skin as well because I never liked it. But I had difficulty in removing the coconut from the shell. Today I have got a tip to do it as well easily. Thanks.
Yes Madam, my mom uses the same technique and i learnt it from her. My mom however never deshells the coconut and slices the coconut bits when its inside the shell ( after breaking it into half ofcourse, which my dad helps her with). And then grinds these bits in the mixie.I found it easy as well, though I'm not a huge fan of coconuts. I also remember my mom giving this little tip to my grandmom many years ago. Thanks for sharing this tip/ technique with everyone.
When you take out the coconuts from the freezer you can easily thaw it by placing them in the microwave for 40 seconds and then use a butter knife to takeout the kernel This is an additional tip which will be useful to all thank you
@@GitasKitchen we can add less than a pinch of salt to the grated coconut before keeping in the freezer. It will stay fresh. It won't become harder when we take the grated coconut outside the freezer.
Wow ! You should file a patent for this technology ! Seriously, this has been a problem that has vexed me all my life in Europe. I got a tabletop grater from India of the kind that you showed in the video and it lasted just 1 week. The other fearsome device "arumamanai" which my grandmother used to use is certainly not for amateurs like me - I will scrape off my palm instead of the coconut. But then she eschewed all the mixies and grinders and claimed that things tasted better when done manually - be it scraping coconut using the "arumamanai" or using the "aattukall". As a kid, I was fascinated by the dexterity with which these older ladies manipulated these devices and used to spend endless hours gazing at them labouring with them. The freeze, extract from shell, grind technique you have showed never occurred to me and I thank you once again for this valuable tip. Your clearly explained videos are a boon, not only to me but to many others. I have referred your videos to my British and French friends at work and they love it. Also, your English is spoken slowly and clearly and that helps immensely for people here who don't easily grasp Indian English. Romba romba thanks from Strasbourg, France. Cheers Suresh PS: Please take a look at the lovely city where I live at: www.otstrasbourg.fr/en/ www.planetware.com/tourist-attractions-/strasbourg-f-a-stu.htm These should be in English
Thank you so much Suresh. It was very interesting reading your detailed comment.I think todays generation can see ural. olakkai ,ammi ,eyinthiram etc only in museums! I remember helping my mother grinding the rice into rava consistency for pidi kozhakattai and arisi upma! both long forgotten dishes! Ungal microwave vadam innum trial stage la daan irukku. Hope to find a way out some day!Thank you so much for sharing my videos.
Romba thanks for your prompt response. Do you live in Madras? My parents live in Madras too although we are "PalBrams" from Kerala. The cuisine at home is heavily influenced by Kerala and coconut is used a lot. Also the language I speak is neither Tamil nor Malayalam but a delicious mixture of the two. I guess you would have seen Kamalahasan's masterpiece Michael Madana Kamaraj where he makes a fairly good attempt at that dialect. You ought to convince your husband and come and visit us here in Strasbourg. Lot less hectic than Paris with no shortage of sights to see. Once again, great videos ! Cheers Suresh @@GitasKitchen

I have been using this method for years now. Discovered it on my own. I used to have health problem so I had to get creative around kitchen. This is one thing I learned during those days.
I have been using this trick since long...Also I peel off the outer brown part of the coconut with a peeler. This way I get white scraped coconut. Thanks a lot for sharing Gita ma'am
What a magnificent tip! I don't buy coconuts thinking about the painful process of grating it without having brown bits all mixed up with the white bits. I shall today. Thanks.
I'm a Neuro Spine patient, this method is very much useful to me, I'm a Malayali and we need Coconut daily, it's too much pain when I do this So Thanks a lot Getha Mam,Stay Safe God Bless you 🙏
Thank you so much for this valuable tip on halving the coconut n freezing overnight leave to thaw for 1 hour then scoop out the halved coconut from shell with knife.!! Great.
Amma dhanyawaad. Myself Manjula Badrinath from Bangalore Karnataka,I follow all your recipes. I love all your recipes tips and love your way of cooking and explaining. I really want to meet you once in my life time. I see my mom in you. I have lost her 25 years ago
Thank you for this time saving tip, Ma'am. I tried it today and was happy to be able to grate an entire coconut within a small fraction of the usual time taken
Thanks Madam. I never seen trick like this. For me, its always boring work to grate Coconut. We are from Konkan side in Maharashtra. In our daily cooking, we must use coconut mostly in all Recipes. But now, its very easy to do by your method. 😊🌹 Originally, l am from Mumbai but now I am living in Qatar. Here in S mkt we easily get Grated coconut as per our requirements ( one two three any ) But in india, its difficult and boring work to grate coconut. I will share this video to all my Friends . Thank you again
Gita's Kitchen - Madam, when l visit to india for vacation, l buy grated coconut ( from 3/4 pcs of coconut ) from Lulu Hyper Market and keep in Fridger. I keep in air tight container. Really no tension nothing 😀
Excellent tip about using the freezer...differential contraction! Real-life Physics in action! Also didn't realize that you could freeze grated coconut. Great idea because organic fresh coconuts are only available for a short duration in a year where I live. Thank you so much!
Wow...just remembered my music teacher telling me ,""kotthi iddukku and mixer llu drrr pannu"""........easy taane ...loved the method of freezing and also scraping the brown part....thank you !
Love you geetha for nice presentation.you are the only one who holds the lid of the mixie on the side and not on the top. Ladies and gents should watch you. I've seen cut fingers when the blades sometimes detach.
Great tip mam. Please come up with white chutney recipe which is served in Adyar Anand bhavan. I've tried many times... But have not succeeded in getting it perfect. Thanks
Thank you so much Auntie for this , I am married in a Telugu family so coconut has become part of my cooking , but I didn’t know how to remove the coconut from it’s shell and hence ( I have the standing scraper but find it tiresome to do the scraping so frequently) . This way is the easiest, scoop out and grind it😍😍😍Thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Madam I appreciated the removing the coconut from the shell pl use blunt knife .Safety comes first.This method I do it?Even the outside part.All I do the same.But I wanted to see ur method.Ok for other to see.Thanks take care.
Please don't remove brown part it has all nutrients more than white part , throwing it is not good ...It also tastes good even in curries or chutneys if you grind whole coconut with brown included instead of just white part
Wowww.... Very useful tips geetha aunty... Sooooooo easy... I was suffering all the times whenever I needed to grate coconuts... Huge relief now aunty... Truly... Credits to u..... Thanks so much for the share...
Very easy method aunty❤️ I am going to marry in next yr and was worried about greating coconut. Amazing life hack aunty 🙏🙏🙏 Thank u so much for sharing
Hello luv⚘this is the best coconut detailed video I've seen. I love coconut on my skin. It's so tightening, nutritious and simply a miracle from heaven🌱May The Lord Shine His Face upon you and provide you always with Good health, wisdom, happiness, protection and good abundance
Hi Gita ma'am, an additional suggestion here is to use a thick knife which makes it easier and safer. I cannot thank you enough for making this video. Just like some others have said, this has changed everything. A couple of years ago, I was on the verge of buying one of those flimsy attachments when I came across your video. Now our old grater lies in a corner in waiting.
Using fridge itself is wrong..for health ji...nowadays people lost their health and wealth thinking of all this easy ways ..which makes the good cholesterol to bad cholesterol in coconut again u r saying to keep it in fridge..coconut should be used within 10 hrs max afterbroken ..for good health...nothing is useful in nowadays kitchen samayal...utube bloggers mostly..Be a natural food eaters ..friends...jai sriram!!
Thank you so much aunty it's really really convenient for me very simple method it helps me alot 😀😀you are superb 👍I have thought always how to remove coconut is very difficult for me but now it's is really easy thank you aunty 😘😘😘
Thank you, it works! Thank you, thank you thank you! I was really not looking forward to grating three coconuts by hand with my little grater! Great stuff! Phew!
Wow! I live in California and I love unsweetened coconut. It's hard to find sometimes. I've wanted to buy a whole coconut and process my self but I've been intimidated until now. Thanks for sharing this method. I'll be trying this soon.
Hi aunty very helpful demonstration thank you I would like to suggest that you freeze the coconut in an ice tray with small cubes. And once they frozen then take them out of ice tray same way we remove ice & put them all in a zip lock freezer bag. This way you only take 1 or 2 pieces of it as you need & do not need to thaw the whole batch. Thank you so much for all your recipes I love them all. Only found your first recipe yesterday & subscribed straight away 🤗 God bless you
Wow, that's an awesome way to make homemade grated coconut... So much better than the store bought one that I have to freeze and use. Thanks so much for this.
Mam,it is best to use grated coconut fresh. You will definitely get to know the difference frozen and fresh. I expressed my point of view only. Any how good clip.your method is ideal for working couples.
Thank you for your prompt reply, in spite of your busy schedule. You make it so... genuinely caring..and sincere. I'm sure you are all of that...thanks once again. God Bless.
Just amazing.......those of us who live abroad, this is a HIGE tip. I get the coconuts from store get them even broken, but without knowing how to get them oit of the cover, they often go bad in the fridge :(
Geeta Maam, Thank you for your outstanding tip of grating coconut. Your tips of 2 ways of grating will not only help the old but also the young generation who is and who is yet to come. Thanks & God Bless

So true 👍👍👍
Brown part is bad for health as per my ayurvedic doctor. Moreover traditional coconut scraping methods let the brown part to be left out..
So what exactly Shud we do.... keep or discard...?
Brown part is not good for health.

Hi aunty very helpful demonstration thank you
I would like to suggest that you freeze the coconut in an ice tray with small cubes. And once they frozen then take them out of ice tray same way we remove ice & put them all in a zip lock freezer bag.
This way you only take 1 or 2 pieces of it as you need & do not need to thaw the whole batch.
Thank you so much for all your recipes I love them all. Only found your first recipe yesterday & subscribed straight away 🤗
God bless you
Thanks Vishva. Good idea!
