Replacements and variations

- Chili: Instead of fresh pepper, use black pepper while grinding the coconut.
- Vegetables: You can use Elephant Yam or Plantain to make a variation.
- It also uses long green green beans instead of dry brown cow peas.
Best suggestions
- Immerse brown cow peas (vanpayar) during the night helps to cook easy.
- The dish should have a homogeneous consistency so that it looks perfect while needing on a banana leaf.
Life life
