Pom (dish) used as an ingredient in preparing "pom". The main stem or corm is most frequently designated as "pomtajer" or "pongtaya" (lit. the tajer/taya for "pom"). The first published description of "pom" comes from the "Encyclopedie van Nederlandsch West-Indië" (1914–1917) which describes the dish as follows: ‘the big tajer, of which the stalk grows above the earth, is grated and treated with the juice of bitter oranges, afterwards with chicken or fish, made into a pie, which dish is known as "pom".’ The basic preparation method is sautéed chicken pieces between two layers of raw, grated "pomtajer", mixed with citrus juice
The Main Ingredient (band) two more albums, 1980's "Ready for Love" and 1981's "I Only Have Eyes for You" (the latter featured a minor hit in "Evening of Love"). The trio reunited for a second time in 1986, but their Zakia single "Do Me Right" flopped, and Simmons returned to his day job. He was replaced by Jerome Jackson on the 1989 Polydor album "I Just Wanna Love You". In the wake of Aaron Neville's Top Ten revival of "Everybody Plays the Fool", Gooding resumed his solo career and issued his third album in 1993. Silvester and Simmons re-formed the Main Ingredient in 1999
