biyaki

biyaki – /bi-ya-kî/ (Maranao snack) [n.] steamed cassava with young corn.

The cassava roots are peeled, grated, pounded, then mixed with grated young corn kernels and sugar.

A ladle scoop of the mixture is rolled in banana leaf (or cornhusk) and then folded on both ends, forming a rectangular thick packet. 

The packets are boiled for about an hour in a pot half-filled with water or until biyaki is cooked.
