Overview

A Spoki or Spoki is a traditional cooking method originating from the mountains of Kelsia where food is cooked slow-cooked underground, using spring-heated stones surrounded in boiling water, and an iron or copper pot. The stones are usually in a small pit, and the round pot, or the Spoki is placed in it and covered with a large flat stone, wet clay, or a copper lid.
