👨🍳 Fremgangsmåde

If using fresh taro leaves, blanch them in boiling water for 1-2 minutes to soften. If using frozen, thaw them. Pat dry.

In a bowl, combine the fish pieces, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to coat the fish.
💡 Professionelle Tips: Avoid over-mixing to prevent the fish from breaking apart. - 3
Lay out two softened taro leaves, overlapping them slightly to form a larger surface. Place about 1/4 of the fish mixture in the center of the leaves.

Pour about 2 tablespoons of coconut milk over the fish mixture. Fold the taro leaves tightly around the filling to create a sealed parcel. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
💡 Professionelle Tips: Tuck in the sides to ensure no filling leaks out during steaming. - 5
Place the parcels in a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water. Add about 100ml of water to the pot, ensuring it doesn't touch the bottom of the steamer basket.

Steam for 25-30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the taro leaves are tender. Serve hot.
