Manok Pansuh receipe

Recently, Hazriq a.k.a John asked me how to make Manok Pansoh dish. So here is the receipe for it.

This is a Sarawakian recipe.




Ingredients:

1kg meaty chicken pieces
1 local brinjal, skinned and cut into wedges
1-2 lemongrass, bruised
20g bungkang leaves (can substitute with daun salam or dried bay leaves)
20g ginger, sliced
10g red chilies, seeded and sliced
1 tsp salt
Bamboo log
Tapioca leaves or banana leaf


Directions:
Combine all the ingredients, except the last two, in a mixing bowl and set aside for 10 minutes. Stuff into the bamboo log and seal with the tapioca leaves of banana leaf.
Cook the chicken by standing the bamboo log sealed side up, over burning wood or charcoal, for 30 minutes.
To serve, remove the tapioca/banana leaf and drain the tasty juice into a bowl. Split the bamboo to extract the chicken and arrange on a serving dish with the juice.

Good Luck!
