- Bake in oven until brown.
- Add 1 cup of warm water.
- Squeeze with a thin cloth or tauaga to get cream.

- Place leaves in hand and close hand slightly to make leaves in a bowl-like shape, into which you pour the cream.
- Pour ~ a small cup of coconut cream inside the leaf structure and close outside edges of the leaves to enclose the cream, making the leaves like a ball-like structure.
- Wrap total package in aluminum foil, twisting the top to conceal and hold the package tight.
- Put in oven and cook for about an hour at 475 degrees F. (quite high).

SAMOAN PALUSAMI
Palusami is a main dish from Samoa made with coconut milk. In the islands of Samoa, we use taro leaves and the Samoan corn-beef but here in America, my family can not live with out it so we use other substitute you can buy at the grocery store.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Make a layer of spinach leaves in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with some of the corned beef, then keep repeating layers of spinach and corned beef until you run out of spinach. Don't worry about how full the dish is because the spinach will shrink as it cooks. Pour both cans of coconut milk over the dish, pressing the leaves down with a spoon. Cover tightly with a lid or aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 55 minutes, or until spinach has completely wilted and the sauce is bubbly. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.

JOYCIE'S PALUSAMI CASSEROLE
Simple and easy casserole from my girlfriend Joycie. You can make this with left over corned beef if you don't like the idea of canned corned beef. This dish can be easy doubled, if you do that don't double the coconut milk just add a bit extra.
