Votausi Mckenzie-Reur's "Bunya" Recipe

bunya nuts

🥗Healthier: chestnuts

💰Cheaper: potatoes

Chestnuts provide a similar texture, while potatoes are more accessible.

Brown the chicken wings in a saucepan.

Add sliced turmeric and grated ginger to the chicken.

Add garlic to the chicken and spices.

Chop and add root vegetables (taro, pumpkin) first as they take longer to cook.

Add softer vegetables (beans, tomatoes) later in the cooking process.

Add a bit of water and cover the saucepan to ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly.

Add island cabbage and beans to the pot.

Pour in light coconut cream for flavor and creaminess.

Plate the dish and let the sauce reduce.

Garnish with fried curry leaves and serve with a squeeze of lemon juice.
