🧂 재료

5-7 medium Taro leaves(stems removed, washed)
2 cups Fresh spinach(roughly chopped (can substitute for taro leaves if unavailable))
1/4 medium Onion(finely chopped)
1 clove Garlic(minced)
1/2 medium Tomato(chopped (optional))
1 cup Coconut milk(full-fat)
1 tsp Salt(or to taste)
1/2 tsp Black pepper(or to taste)
Aluminum foil(for wrapping)

👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Prepare the taro leaves by washing them thoroughly and removing any tough stems. If using spinach, wash and roughly chop it.
2
In a bowl, combine the chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped tomato (if using), salt, and pepper. Mix well.
3
Lay out 2-3 taro leaves overlapping on a clean surface to form a base. If using spinach, layer a generous amount of spinach on top of the taro leaves.
4
Spoon the onion and garlic mixture onto the center of the leaves. Pour about 2-3 tablespoons of coconut milk over the mixture.
5
Fold the taro leaves and spinach to create a sealed parcel, similar to an envelope. Ensure there are no gaps for the liquid to escape.
6
Wrap each parcel tightly in aluminum foil. You may want to double wrap to prevent leaks.
7
Place the foil-wrapped parcels in a baking dish. Bake in a preheated oven at 175°C (350°F) for approximately 1 hour, or until the taro leaves are tender and dark green.
8
Carefully unwrap the parcels (beware of steam). Serve hot, traditionally with boiled root vegetables like taro or sweet potato.
