Pour the tapioca into a bowl and add a lot of water to soak it.

Soak the tapioca to allow any sand to settle at the bottom and to soften the tapioca.

Grate the coconut using a grater, or slice it into small bits if preferred.

Pour some water into a pot, adjusting the quantity based on desired thickness of the pudding.

Add coconut water to the pot.

Add 2 tablespoons of sugar (or more/less as desired) to the pot.

Add the grated coconut to the pot and stir briefly to dissolve the sugar.

Add the soaked tapioca to the pot, noting that it may have some soft lumps.

Stir well to mix all ingredients together.

Cook the mixture for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

After 25 minutes, check the tapioca; it should be ready with soft lumps present.
