  • 2 medium kumara, peeled and cut into chunks
  • ½ kamokamo or 2 medium carrots

  3. For the doughboys, mix the flours and salt with 1 cup warm water to form a soft dough. Divide and mould into 8 balls. Cover until needed.
  4. Add the root vegetables to the pot and continue cooking gently for 5 minutes.
