These women are workers in a production house.

they're making GRUBI. sweet snack made from sweet

potato.
Sweet potato is cut into thin slices which

are then chopped.
The chopped sweet potato is added

to hot oil. While cooking, add coconut sugar.


once cooked, it is lifted to form a ball

immediately. formed with bare hands. don't wait

cold. because if it gets cold these pieces can not

be rounded again. because it must be destroyed.

GRUBI is indeed a round, crunchy sweet snack. only

in the state of a punch can it be formed into

balls.
This woman's hand won't hurt because

it's used to it. those of us who are still laymen

can't do this. surely our hands will be blistered.
