Babi Guling
Babi Guling (Suckling Pig) may be the most famous Balinese cuisine. Babi Guling is a whole baby pig prepared over an open, corn husk fire. A long stick is inserted through the pig’s body from one end to the other after it is flavored, inside and out, with chopped spices that include shallots, garlic, ginger, turmeric, galangal, pepper coriander, candlenuts, chilies, lemon grass and lots of whole cassava leaves.
The cassava leaves spread the spices evenly while the pig is being slowly grilled.
When this delicious treat is fully cooked, the meat is cut into small portions for serving. Babi Guling is served in many food stalls restaurants throughout Bali and is a huge favorite.
When you order Babi Guling it usually comes served with a couple of side dishes…always a pleasant surprise.

We had Babi Guling in Sanur at a small restaurant,it was alright but they served only a couple of small pieces, it cost us a lot of money, we were most disapointed…Will try somewhere else next time we are there.
