batar daan

Batar daan is a Timorese dish of boiled maize with beans and vegetables. A recipe collected in Renilde Fátima Mesquita Monteiro’s research uses dried maize, dried beans and peanuts. These are cooked together in water before pumpkin is added.[1]

Other vegetables can replace the pumpkin, and a coconut drink is an optional addition.[1]
