- âTo prevent clumping, you can mix the cornmeal with a small amount of cold water to form a slurry before adding it to the boiling water.
- âIf the porridge becomes too thick, add a little hot water and stir to achieve the desired consistency.
- âFor a richer flavor, some recipes suggest substituting some or all of the water with milk or coconut milk, or adding a tablespoon of butter or oil while cooking.
