My family get together to cook some delicious kai (food) that many Māori enjoy eating here in Aotearoa NZ
We cook titi aka short tailed shearwater, mutton bird or muttonbird with some tasty foraged from the wild PUHA. Also on the menu is fry bread, very sweet flavoured watercress from the pot.. AND some much revered puha toroi which is puha mixed with mussels.
I do a few taste tests just for you in this exciting and tasty episode.
Delicious Māori Boil up is a favourite in our house

You always make me hungry Mike. I'm Aboriginal and my grandmother told me stories of them as kids mutton birding on our shoreline over here in Australia. She use to luv them she told me. I never had the chance to try them. They look delicious. Great family vid mate.

I read on google that the muttonbird or short tailed shearwater is also in Australia.

Awesome! I’m lucky in that respect. I can get mutton bird for free. Watched this vid around 6am this morning. Told my aboriginal mate today who goes get them on the northwest of tassie when I was growing up we got them salted in buckets and cooked it the same way you have. He already new that go figure? They just straight up bbq them. Might get a couple more. As a Maori I’ll help them celebrate naidoc week. Chur!

What a wonderful family feed for a cherished auntie. Would be 45 yrs since I have a mutton bird . Cooked that way too. Yummo. 😊

@donahipene1775 Жыл бұрын

Docahi when I was a kid my father used to get a 5 gallon tin every year full of mutton birds they came from the mutton bird islands ,and as there was no refrigeration on the islands they salted them ,so mum had to boil them in 3 lots of fresh water to get rid of the salt. Loved the meat wasn’t keen on the fat .I now live on Phillip island Australia and there is a big colony here but they are protected ,but you can buy them from king island in season yummy

Puha requires so much patience to clean.. I love the entire process..Worth it..Makes for a beautiful enjoyable kai.. Mmm and I’d put a big Maori bread dough under the Titi while it cooks to absorb all that fat.. Similar to what middle eastern people do when they cook their mutton over charcoal, and eat it..Not waste anything … So delicious. Fattening but hey, it’s an expensive delicacy. Get in while the going is good🤣🤣🤣🙏🏽

Titi is a luxury... long time since I've eaten one... only ate them boiled and puha hard to come by in Auckland. Such an abundance of puha... you are blessed. Motivated now to do a bacon bone boil-up for me ... with kale? Will have to get on train to Sth Auck. to get watercress at GI. Marae kitchens are so well-equipped now and clean. Still remember days when food was cooked in big pots hanging over open fire in kauta. A, tena koutou, ka pai hoki te pikitia nei.
