Fufu
Ingredients
Makes about 3 cups fufu
4 cups water
1¼ cups Cream of Wheat
1 cup potato flakes
1 tablespoon margarine, optional
⅛ teaspoon salt, optional
Method
In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups water to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low.
In a large saucepan, bring 2 cups water to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and add Cream of wheat ¼ cup at a time, stirring constantly. Add tablespoons of hot water from the other pan when mixture gets too thick to stir.
Add potato flakes ¼ cup at a time, stirring constantly and, when necessary, adding hot water.
Add margarine and salt and stir until margarine is melted. Continue to cook, stirring vigorously, until fufu pulls away from the sides of the pan and forms a ball.
Form fufu into cup-size balls and place on plates or in bowls.
