About

0 spots Paramaribo, Suriname

A gratin-style dish emblematic of Suriname, in which chicken and grated tuber are seasoned with citrus juice and baked in the oven. The 'pomtajer', a kind of taro, gives it a distinctive silkiness and flavour, browning on top while staying moist within. Originating with Surinamese Jews, it is now cherished across ethnic lines as an indispensable dish for festive occasions.
