Manok Pansoh

Manok Pansoh is an Iban delicacy, which is chicken in bamboo. The dish is prepared by having cut chicken pieces, mushroom, lemongrass and tapioca leaves wrapped and bundled together in a tube, which are then stuffed into bamboo shafts and sat over an open fire to roast.

This results in a flavour sealed into the food is a succulent, juicy and tender chicken with gravy, and a hint of lemongrass and bamboo.

This Iban dish can be found at longhouses and during longhouse visit arrangements, although there are some restaurants or markets in the city that sell them. If you are on a tour, ask your tour guide for longhouse visits, or if you are travelling on your own, ask around for the best anbd most recommended places.
