- 200white sweet potato diced
- 300 peeled Japanese pumpkin
- 200 g taro diced
- 1 onion diced
- 1lt coconut cream
- 1lt vegetable stock

- 1 tbs saltbush

- Add coconut cream, vegetable stock, and celery salt.

SALTBUSH AND WARRIGAL GREENS DAMPER
INGREDIENTS
- 350g self-raising flour, plus extra for dusting
- 80g room temperature nut butter (nuttlex)
- 1 tablespoons dried saltbush
- 100g warrigal greens, thinly sliced
- 1 x 50cm sheet of banana leaf
METHOD
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
- To a bowl, add the flour and butter and mix together using your hands until fully combined.
- Add the saltbush and warrigal greens and mix through.
- Add 375 ml water to the mixture, a little at a time, and mix with your fingers until you have a nice sticky dough.
- Place some flour on your work surface, then knead the dough until you have a bread-dough consistency. Roll into a log, then set aside.
- Before using your banana leaf, you need to release the oils to make it flexible and bring out the flavours. Hold the banana leaf over an open gas flame and move across the flame in sections until the oils seep through the entire leaf. If you do not have a gas flame, place in a dry, non-stick frying pan for a few seconds on each side.
- Place the dough in the centre of the banana leaf. Wrap it, folding over each end, and roll it up like a burrito. Then wrap in aluminium foil using the same method.
- Place on the oven shelf and cook for 45-50 minutes.
- Serve with golden syrup butter (nuttlex)
