1. Mix yeast with 1⁄2 cup warm water in a small bowl, and set aside until yeast dissolves and little bubbles begin to appear on the surface, about 10 minutes.

Ask a question about this stepCombine farina and 1 cup water in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low, and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, 2–3 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and stir until cool.
Ask a question about this stepPut cooled rice flour, coconut. 4 tsp sugar, cooled farina, and proofed yeast in a large bowl, and whisk in enough water (about 1 1⁄2 cups) to make a thick batter. Cover with plastic wrap, and set aside in a warm, moist place (in a turned-off oven alongside a bowl of hot water, if you like) until batter expands slightly and becomes bubbly, 5–8 hours. (Batter may be refrigerated for several hours; return batter to room temperature before frying.) Whisk coconut milk, salt, and remaining 1 1⁄2 tsp. sugar into fermented batter. It should be the consistency of foamy cake batter; thin the batter with a little water, if needed.
Ask a question about this stepPreheat oven to 200°. Heat a nonstick griddle or large skillet over medium heat. For each pancake, ladle about 1⁄4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle, and cook until the underside has browned to the color of cinnamon, about 3 minutes. Flip pancake over with a spatula, and brown other side, about 2 minutes more. Pancake should be about 1⁄2" thick and laced with fine holes. Transfer to a platter, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining batter.
