Then add the chicken stock and oysters (lightly
poach oyster meat in juice before adding to stock). When

stock) cook till all the liquid is absorbed, season with
salt and pepper to taste. Baked Taro & Sweets: Rub a
casserole dish with butter and layer the taro

macnuts, butter, coconut syrup till it
is dry and resembles crumbly pie dough. When taro and
sweet potato are done top with the macnut mixture and
bake till it is golden brown. Bake at 350
degrees for 30 - 40 minutes.
