Reminiscent of chicken tikka masala, this recipe is inspired by the in-ground, or lovo, cooking of Fiji. There, meats, tubers, jackfruit, or breadfruit are seasoned, doused in coconut milk, then wrapped in banana leaves and slow-cooked. This simple vegan dish is rich and satisfying, drawing on the Indo-Fijian flavors of the island, with aromatic spices and a bit of a kick. Serve with white rice and sautéed veggies, with naan, or alongside your favorite curries.
