2 tbs grated coconut

some salt to taste

some sugar
Sarawak white pepper

some chopped chillies

l  tumeric leaf - chopped very fine

square pieces of banana leaves about 5 inches (about 20)

5-6 sticks of lidi (you can make this yourself from bamboo or coconut fronds)

Method

2. mix well.

3. wrap the mixture hbanana leaves. Form cones.

4. Push bamboo sticks through the satar, three on each stick.
