Here is mine. It comes from Niue. I used to sit and watch my nana, mum and aunties make this recipe every weekend when I was little because I loved the smell and I love coconut cream. We call it Polo and Tangata whenua call it Poroporo.

  • 2 teaspoons of salt

  • Large onion (sliced)

  • Meat (lamb chops, pork, corned beef)

Method:

  • Place two thirds of the polo in a tray. Put the meat and potato in and evenly spread out the onion on top of your chosen meat.
