-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/2 cup yellow cornmeal

2 cup water

1 tbsp sunflower oil

1/2 tsp salt

Sauce:

4 tbsp butter

4 tbsp crushed tomato -- in a can, or 2 tbsp tomato paste mixed

with water

Crumbled feta cheese

1 Pinch crushed red pepper -- or more to taste (optional)

 

 

Boil the water, sunflower oil and salt in a pot. Slowly pour in the cornmeal.

Stir, making sure there are no lumps. Cook for about 10-12 minutes on medium-low

heat. The mixture should become doughy and leave the sides of the pot in the

end.

 

Meanwhile, cook the butter and crushed tomato for a few minutes on low heat..

 

Place Kacamak on a service plate. Pour the tomato source all over. Sprinkle some

crumbled feta cheese and serve while hot. It's a very delicious dish for

breakfast. You can also serve Kacamak just with the Feta cheese.

 

You can also have Kacamak with Grape Molasses as a sweet dish. Heat up some

butter, pour it on top and then add grape molasses.

 

Makes 2 servings.
