Food in Tonga

1. Which of the following is NOT an ingredient in Lu?


a) Sipi (lamb) or Pulu (beef) b) Onions

c) Coconut shell d) Taro leaves


2. Which of the following dishes uses fresh fish?


a) Puaka Tunu b) ‘Otai

c) Lu Sipi d) ‘Ota Ika


3. Explain why someone has to stay by the Puaka Tunu and constantly rotate it over heat.


→So the food does not overcook because if you don’t rotate the pig it will only be cooked on one side and we don’t want that to happen plus it will be raw and no one likes raw pig.


4. True or False: “The fruit is grated into small pieces so that it is easier to drink.”


a) True b) False


5. Faikakai Topai is a Tongan dessert. What is it?


a) Brown sugar Donuts b) Coconut Dumplings

c) Deep-fried Donuts d) Sugar Soup


6. When making ‘Otai, explain why people in Tonga might use coconut milk instead of cow's milk. 


→In Tonga there aren’t that many cows so they use coconut milk instead because in Tonga they have a lot of coconut trees.


7. Write what Tongan dishes you would like to try and why.


→Ota Ika is my favourite dish because I love to raw fish it’s like if I had to choose between burger king and Ota Ika I would choose Oca Ika its really nice with taro when ever I go to my Nana’s house she would always make us Ota Ika in Samoa we call it Ota. Sometimes I get in trouble from my mum because I only eat the fish then I get more fish and end up eating the whole thing.
