A thick cut of bamboo about three inches in diameter and eighteen inches long is half filled with rice, and water poured in till it stands three inches over the rice. The bamboo is then slung at an angle of 45 degrees on a tripod over a fire till all the water is evaporated, when the rice should be ready. Gnah Jaw. (Roast Fish.)
