👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Prepare the taro leaves: Trim off the tough stems and veins from the taro leaves. Rinse them thoroughly, then roll them up and slice into strips. Set aside.
2
Sauté aromatics: Heat the cooking oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
3
Cook the chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the pot and brown them on all sides. Stir for about 2 minutes to prevent burning.
4
Simmer the stew: Add the water, chicken bouillon, salt, and pepper to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
5
Add taro leaves and coconut milk: Stir in the chopped taro leaves and the can of coconut milk. Ensure the taro leaves are submerged. Cover and continue to simmer for another 30-40 minutes, or until the taro leaves are tender and the stew has thickened.
6
Adjust seasoning and serve: Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot, often with rice or taro.
