Ayam Pansuh (Manok Pansoh)

This is one of the most famous Sarawak special and exotic delicacy. It originated from the Iban tribes, but now being consumed by many.


Raw ayam pansuh.


I will put up the recipe for this ayam pansuh (pansoh) someday.

For the uninitiated, this ayam pansuh will be cooked in a bamboo over a fire, capped with tapioca leaves. Some other variation are ayam pansuh added with tempoyak (fermented durian), or daun pegaga, or you can use pork meat or other fishes like catfish (my favorite ;) ). The one above has been added with tipu/tepus, and it gave such an oomph to the already delicious chicken.

Ayam pansuh has no origin, it was for both iban and bidayuh tribes. the Dayaks always prepare this dish on any celebration days, especially the Gawai Dayak (celebration for the end of harvesting)
