Ugali (A Stiff Dough Made from Cornmeal)

Ingredients

• •White corn flour, about 2 cups
• •Water
• •Salt (optional)
• •Mwiko

Directions

1. 1Bring water in a pan to a boil (about 4 Cups).
2. 2Reduce heat to medium and put flour, gradually stirring until the consistency is stiff. Stir continously, and cover for about 5 minutes.
3. 3Stir again and form into a mound. The ugali will be done when it pulls from the sides of the pan easily and does not stick. The finished product should look like stiff grits.
4. 4Cover the pot with a plate and invert the pan so that the Ugali “drops” on the plate.
