CHICKEN FAFA
This is a version of a Tahitian dish, since Taro is hard to come by in the U.S. I substitute it with spinach leaves. This is also a mild dish. Serve this dish with rice, I prefer sticky rice, but any other kind works well. For different flavors try jasmine rice.

CHICKEN FA FA
This is from a polynesian kitchen website for Tahiti. 1 1/2 lbs- Taro leaves (fa fa), were originally used in the recipe but food.com would not recognize the ingredient, spinach is a substiture for taro leaves. The taro must be cooked in saltwater first to remove irritating cacium oxalate from the leaves.

Steps:
- If using taro leaves, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the taro leaves, reduce heat and simmer for 30-40 minutes. Drain and squeeze dry. If using spinach, skip this step and proceed to Step 2.
- Heat the oil over medium-high flame in a large pot. Brown the chicken on all sides in the hot oil. Remove to a plate.
- Sauté the onion, garlic and ginger in the remaining oil till the onion is translucent.
- Add back the chicken pieces, stock or water, salt and pepper.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered for about 20 minutes.
- Add the taro leaves or spinach and simmer another 15 minutes till chicken is tender.
- Stir the cornstarch or arrowroot into 2-3 tablespoons of cold water and then stir into the simmering sauce to thicken lightly.
- Stir in coconut cream to finish and serve over rice.
- (My tip-I love this with yams or sweet potatoes too!).
