Student Community Service Program Group 111 Malikussaleh University in Paya Manok Village, Blang Subdistrict, buy cooking pliek soup with residents before the end of the KKN period
In addition to strengthening the friendship between students and village residents towards the end of the KKN period, the Kuah Pliek menu was chosen to introduce Acehnese specialties to a number of Malikussaleh University students from outside Aceh.
Pliek sauce is a typical dish from Aceh which is made from "pliek" which means patarana (fermented coconut). This dish is very popular in Aceh, but there are still many students from other regions who are not familiar with this cuisine. The ingredients needed include young papaya, long beans, eggplant, cempokak, melinjau leaves and melinjau fruit, sweet potato leaves, and young jackfruit.
“Several students from outside Aceh learned how to cook pliek soup. Their insight about Acehnese cuisine is growing," said the Field Advisory Lecturer for KKN Group 111 students,
The Head of Ubit Paya Itek Village, Adbul Halim, supported the event with Acehnese cuisine. According to him, cooking pliek sauce is better than the usual grilled chicken. "For students from outside Aceh, after this, of course, they already understand how to cook pliek sauce, although pliek is rather difficult to obtain outside Aceh," he said as reported by the Public Relations of KKN Group 111
