Lovo is a traditional Fijian cooking method that involves cooking food in an underground oven. The food, usually consisting of meat, fish, and vegetables, is wrapped in banana leaves and placed on hot stones in a pit dug in the ground. The pit is then covered with more banana leaves and soil, allowing the food to cook slowly and absorb the smoky flavors. Lovo is a communal cooking experience and is often prepared for special occasions and celebrations.
