Instructions
- Clean the chicken and coat with lime juice until evenly coated. Set aside.
- Boil cassava leaves until soft. Squeeze the water then cut into pieces. Set aside.
- Saute ground spices until fragrant. Adjust the taste. Set aside.
- Take some ground spices, mix them with cassava in one container. Mix well.
- Take the chicken and coat its entire body with ground spices down to the chicken's stomach.
- Insert the spiced cassava leaves into the chicken's stomach until it is full. Close the belly by hooking the tail with a toothpick.
- Take banana leaves and stack several banana leaves (in layers) together. Place the chicken on the banana leaf. Wrap it in such a way that it is really tight. Pin it in several parts using toothpicks.
- Steam the chicken for approximately 2 hours over low heat. Lift.
- Prepare a grill or you can also use a flat, non-stick frying pan. Grill the chicken (still wrapped in banana leaves) over hot coals for approximately 20 minutes. Lift.
- Ready to be served.
- 1. You can replace the rooster with a duck or free-range chicken according to taste. 2. Don't hesitate to add lots of salt because the salty taste will be reduced a lot due to steaming. 3. The banana leaves used to wrap the chicken should be layered thickly, so they don't leak. 4. Can replace steaming with the oven method. If using an oven, the chicken can be baked for approximately 3-4 hours at 180°C. Then turn on the top heat for the last 1 hour of roasting. 5. Grill the chicken using a GM Bear non-stick frying pan Teflon Fry Pan (See Lazada DISCOUNT) making it easier for you to clean up leftovers.
