How to make lu sipi
My favourite food is lu sipi. It is a Tongan food.
Ingredients
- Lu
- Sipi
- Coconut cream
- Onion
- Sait
Materials
- chopping board
- big sharp knife
- foil
- umu/oven
Method: How to make the delicious lu
- Chop the sipi into small pieces.
- Put it in a medium size boiling pot.
- Turn the stove on high and put the pot with the chopped pieces of sipi (lamb) in it and let it cook but not too cooked.
- Clean the lu leaves with water.
- Cut the foil in a rectangular shape of about 120cms.
Note. You can have two pieces of a rectangular shape so it is thick enough and it won’t get ripped easily.
- Cut 2 large onions into small cubes.
- Lay the lu one at the time nicely on top of each leaf so it can hold the coconut cream and meat inside.
- Grab two big spoonfuls of sipi and pour it onto the small pile of lu.
- Add a small handful of onions on top of the meat.
- Hold up the pile of lu then pour 1 cup of coconut cream into it.
- Wrap it up neatly and tightly with the foil.
- Put it in the umu or oven and cooked it for one or two hours until it cooked properly.
