Definitions
- food packaged in a banana leaf. In Jimbaran = mashed fish with spices and grated coconut wrapped as a cylinder, skewered at both ends, and cooked on a hot piece of metal without oil (nyahnyah). Elsewhere, any food wrapped as a cylinder or elongated prism in a banana leaf and skewered at each end, either grilled or cooked on a hot piece of metal without oil. Pelas and pesan used interchangeably. Pelas can be food eaten as a snack, vs. pesan, food eaten with rice as a main meal. In Jimbaran, pelas contains mashed fish and grated coconut, whereas pesan contains chunks of fish and no coconut. Pelas is also a small container made of a mango tree leaf used in an offering during Kuningan. The pelas container, about as big as the end of the thumb, contains telengis, but because it is stored for a long time, the telengis is often eaten by insects or dried up by time it is used. en
