Kulolo (Taro pudding, Hawaiian)

2 ti leaves

Mix all ingredients together. Line bread loaf with foil. Put ti leaves on foil, cutting leaf to fit the pan. Pour pudding into the pan and cover top with foil. Bake 2 hours at 400 degrees. Remove foil during the last half hour to allow browning. Originally this was baked in an imu (underground oven).
