African Nsima

 

3 cup water

1 cup cold water

2 1/2 cups cornmeal

 

Boil water in a saucepan. In a bowl, make a paste using part of the cornmeal and

all of the cold water. Add the paste to the hot water. Stir with a spoon until

mixture has a thick, porridge-like texture. Cover the saucepan and simmer for 15

minutes. Turn heat to lowest setting, remove the lid, and gradually add rest of

cornmeal, stirring constantly. Continue until mixture thickens to desired

consistency. Cover and cook on lowest heat for about 5 minutes. Stir before

serving. Serves 4.
