Takihi
Takihi is considered the national dish of Niue. This Niuean dish is traditionally made from thinly sliced taro and papaya, layered and dressed with coconut cream and baked in a type of underground oven called an Umu. Other variations of the dish can involve onion, pawpaw, tapioca, sweet potato (sometimes referred to as 'kūmara'), and shaved coconut. Its flavor is often described as "creamy, sweet, and savory". It is credited as being unique to Niue. It is popularly eaten with Niuean raw fish, or more generally with seafood.
