- โFor a richer flavor, you can marinate the chicken in salt, pepper, and a little ginger and garlic for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- โIf you cannot find kumu, spinach, or other local greens, kale or Swiss chard can be used as substitutes.
- โEnsure the root vegetables are cut into large, uniform pieces to prevent them from becoming mushy.
