Ugali is a popular staple dish in Kenya, made from cornmeal and water. It is often served with a variety of dishes, such as stews or vegetables. Here is a simple recipe for how to make Ugali:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of cornmeal
- 2 cups of water
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt (optional)
Instructions:
- In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Slowly add the cornmeal to the boiling water, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon to avoid lumps.
- Add the salt, if using, and continue to stir until the mixture thickens and pulls away from the sides of the pan, about 5-10 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and let the Ugali cool slightly.
- Use your hands to shape the Ugali into small balls or patties. Serve immediately with your choice of stew or vegetables.
