    Hi Singing Chef.... yes the paste freezes easily & you can also substitue the chicken for fish or beef.  As far as quantity goes I can only say that it makes quite a substantial amount & it really depends on how many parcels you make.  It's so authentic & very delicious....enjoy!!  I will also post the Water Spinach with Sambal Pelecing which can also be steamed above the rice in the Varoma.  Thank you for your positive comments.tmrc_emoticons.)

    Another "must try" dish Love the fact that you can utilise the Varoma. always looking for Varoma recipes for my customers. Thanks for posting .tmrc_emoticons.D must give it  a try. The Megenep Paste sounds delicious. How much does it make? and can you freeze it ok?
