KAPISI PULU - CABBAGE AND CORNED BEEF IN COCONUT MILK
This recipe can be claimed by Tongan's Samoan's and Fijians (so my girlfriends tell me). For convenience you can use canned corned beef, but my friend now cooks extra corned silverside and then makes this the next day. This recipe was sourced from my Samoan & Fijian friends and from http://www.eua-island-tonga.com/Tongan-recipes.html

Steps:
- Place the cabbage leaves on foil paper to make a cup shape. (It would help to put all these in a round cake tin). Into the cup-shaped cabbage leaves, put the corned beef, onion, tomato, some shredded cabbage and coconut cream.
- Wrap the foil around and bake in a moderate oven for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
COCONUT MILK CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE
I was craving corned beef and cabbage recently, but the thought of doing the same old New England boiled dinner had me yawning. I tried to think of some new, interesting braising liquid, and that's when I remembered I've never had something stewed in coconut milk that I didn't like. The coconut milk gave the broth a subtle sweetness and richness that I was really happy with.

Tips:
- Look for corned beef that is labeled "point cut" or "flat cut." These cuts are ideal for stewing or braising, as they contain more fat and connective tissue, which break down during cooking and contribute to a rich flavor.
- If you're using a Dutch oven or other heavy pot, you can brown the corned beef and cabbage in the same pot. This helps to develop flavor and reduce the number of dishes you need to clean.
- Use a variety of vegetables in your kapisi pulu. In addition to cabbage, you can also add carrots, potatoes, celery, and onions. This will create a more flavorful and colorful dish.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and seasonings. Kapisi pulu is a versatile dish that can be customized to your own taste preferences. Try adding a pinch of cumin, coriander, or turmeric for a warm and earthy flavor.
- Serve kapisi pulu with steamed rice or your favorite bread. It's also a great dish to serve as a side dish with grilled or roasted meats.
Conclusion:
Kapisi pulu is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The combination of corned beef, cabbage, and coconut milk creates a rich and flavorful stew that is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting recipe, give kapisi pulu a try. You won't be disappointed!
