Boil up is a traditional

Māori food from New Zealand.[1][2][3][4]

Boil-up traditionally is a broth/soup made from balanced combination of meat and bones (e.g.

dumplings known as "doughboys".[5][6]

Origins

In

Polynesian cuisine, food was boiled in wooden bowls into which a red-hot stone was dropped. This was sufficient for heating liquids and pastes, but was insufficient to cook taro or pork; those foods were usually baked in an earth oven.[7] The Māori carried these traditions to Aotearoa (New Zealand), making puddings of grated kūmara (called roroi) or mashed kiekie flower bracts in large wooden bowls.[7]

When

rēwena bread, and for the first pork-and-potato boil ups.[8]
