Kerisik is what gives rendang its colour and its body. Grated coconut is dry-toasted until it turns deep brown, then pounded until the oil comes out and it collapses into a dark, sticky paste.

Doing it at home means twenty minutes at the stove stirring constantly, and it burns the moment you look away. This is the same thing, already done.

A tablespoon thickens a curry without flour and adds a toasted, slightly sweet note that coconut milk alone does not give.
