🧂 Ингредиенты
- 1 kg Pulaka corms(peeled and grated)

👨🍳 Инструкции
- 1
Prepare the pulaka: Peel the pulaka corms and grate them finely. If using a traditional limestone grater, ensure the pulp is well-formed.
- 2
Mix the pulaka: In a bowl, combine the grated pulaka with 400ml of coconut cream. If using, add the red toddy for extra sweetness and color. Mix thoroughly to form a paste.
- 3
Prepare the banana leaves: Briefly warm the banana leaves over a gentle heat (like a low oven or a warm grill) to make them pliable.
- 4
Form the parcels: Take a portion of the pulaka mixture and shape it into small balls or patties using your hands or a small bowl. Place each portion onto a warmed banana leaf.
- 5
Wrap and steam: Fold the banana leaves to enclose the pulaka mixture, creating individual parcels. Secure them if necessary. Place the parcels in an oven or an earth oven and bake for approximately 1.5 hours, or until the pulaka is cooked through and tender.
- 6
Serve: Once cooked, carefully unwrap the parcels. Place the steamed pulaka into a serving dish and pour over the additional 200ml of coconut cream. Stir gently with a green coconut stem (palafa) if available, or a spoon. Serve warm as a dessert or snack.
