METHOD

  1. Put some coconut oil in a pot and once hot add onion and chopped garlic, add spices and cook until fragrant.
  2. Chop rourou into small pieces. Saute in a pot with garlic and finely diced onion. Cook over a low heat and stir when you can smell the onion and garlic cooking.

  6. Blanch Moca, mix with caramelised onion and pineapple. Slow cook for 20 minutes in a pan with coconut oil.
  7. Cut the Mango into pieces with a handful of mint and two spoons of Bu juice, lemon juice and garlic and blend together to make the Mango and mint dressing for the Moca salad.
  8. Place Moca salad on the bottom of the Platter and top with the Mango dressing, place your Rourou balls on the top. Enjoy.
