Lovo, traditional Fijian cooking

The Lovo is a traditional Fijian method of cooking food, particularly for large gatherings, feasts, and special occasions. It involves digging a pit, heating stones with firewood, and cooking food (meat, root vegetables, fish) wrapped in leaves underground. It is similar to the Maori Hangi in New Zealand and the Umu in Samoa.
