"Puha and Pakeha" is a 1960s New Zealand novelty song, written and performed by Rod Derrett.
Darkly humorous in nature, it is about Māori people in early New Zealand preparing 'boil-up' meals of pūhā (a leafy vegetable that grows in the wild) and Pākehā (New Zealanders of European descent).
In 2004, a complaint was laid with the Broadcasting Standards Authority that the song was culturally insensitive to Pākehā.
