The trick to buttery moimoi is in the mixing. Check if the seasoning are okay to your taste
- 10
You can add the fish and egg at this point and mix together. Or you can decide to put them individually when wrapping the moimoi

Next put a big pot on the stove, place two or more leaves inside and add water to cover the leaves, let it start boiling

Next is to start wrapping the moimoi in the leaves
