Balinese Chicken Betutu is one of the dishes made today for Indonesian Week article. It is quite a distinctive dish known originally from Bali and usually served in traditional ceremonies and prayers.
Betutu is made with chicken or duck which is stuffed with spices and cassava leaves and then wrapped with banana leave before it is roasted for about 6 - 7 hours. But today we didn’t leave it that long. My colleague managed to made a simple version of Ayam Betutu which only needed probably one hour an a half.
Look at those cassava leaves stuffed in the middle!
