Put the coconut pulp back in the grinder and add the another cup of warm water. Grind for 2 minutes and squeeze out the coconut milk. Repeat the same procedure for remaining warm water. Set the coconut milk aside. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds, chana dal and urad dal and let them splutter.
