Ayam Pansuh

"Pansuh" in Iban means cooking food in a bamboo stem.
In contrast to the Malay in Semenanjung who use bamboo stem to cook lemang during Hari Raya,
the Iban cook all sort of food in the bamboo stem; rice, vegetables, fish and chicken.
Making "pansuh" is not confined during festive seasons only, they make it as they like.
During Hari Raya gathering in my clinic the Iban staffs decided
to make Pansuh Chicken. The taste and aroma of the food was absolutely great.
