Palusami

Ingredients

 * 5 coconuts - coconut scraper
 * onions - baking tin
 * lots of taro leaves
 * aluminum foil

Directions

 * 1) PREPARING THE CREAM:
 * 2) Scrape 5 fresh coconuts into the baking tin.
 * 3) Bake in oven until brown. Add ~ cup of warm water.
 * 4) Squeeze with a thin cloth or tauaga to get cream.
 * 5) Add salt and onion to personal taste.
 * 6) PREPARING THE LUAU/PALUSAMI:
 * 7) Get taro leaves. (You will need ~ 4 leaves for one luau.
 * 8) Use 1 big leaf and 3 or 4 smaller leaves. You can break a bigger leaf to make a smaller leaf.) Lay the 4 pieces flat with the big one on the bottom and the 3 smaller ones on top.
 * 9) Place leaves in hand and close hand slightly to make leaves in a bowl-like shape, into which you pour the cream.
 * 10) Pour ~ a small cup of coconut cream inside the leaf structure and close outside edges of the leaves to enclose the cream, making the leaves like a ball-like structure.
 * 11) Wrap total package in aluminum foil, twisting the top to conceal and hold the package tight.
 * 12) Put in oven and cook for about an hour at ~ 250`C (quite high).
