👨‍🍳 조리법

1. 1

   If using fresh taro leaves, wash them thoroughly and remove the tough stems. If using spinach, ensure it's well-drained.

   💡 전문가 팁: Taro leaves can cause skin irritation if not handled properly. Wear gloves if sensitive.
2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces, chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.

3. 3

   Lay out the taro leaves (or spinach) to form a base. Place a portion of the seasoned chicken mixture in the center.

   💡 전문가 팁: For taro leaves, layer them to create a leak-proof parcel.
4. 4

   Pour about 1/4 cup of coconut cream over the chicken mixture in each parcel.

5. 5

   Carefully wrap the taro leaves (or spinach) around the chicken to form a packet. If using banana leaves, wrap the taro leaf parcels within the banana leaves for added flavor and moisture.

   💡 전문가 팁: Ensure the parcels are sealed tightly to prevent leakage.
6. 6

   Wrap each packet securely in aluminum foil.

7. 7

   Place the foil-wrapped parcels in a baking dish. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

   💡 전문가 팁: Alternatively, this dish can be cooked in an 'umu' (traditional Tongan underground oven).
8. 8

   Carefully unwrap the parcels and serve hot.

   💡 전문가 팁: Serve with steamed taro, yams, or rice.
