👨‍🍳 조리법

1. 1

   Boil water: Pour about 500-600ml of water into a medium-sized pot. Bring it to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. This should take approximately 5-7 minutes.

   ⏱️ 5-7 minutes
2. 2

   Prepare the starch paste: While the water is boiling, in a separate bowl, combine the 400g of cassava starch with about 200-250ml of cold water. Stir vigorously until you achieve a smooth, lump-free paste. The consistency should be like thick pancake batter.

   ⏱️ 3-5 minutes
3. 3

   Combine and stir: Once the water is boiling vigorously, carefully and slowly pour the boiling water into the starch paste, stirring continuously and rapidly with a sturdy wooden spoon or spatula. Be cautious as the mixture will thicken quickly. Continue stirring until all the boiling water is incorporated and you have a uniform, thick mixture.

   ⏱️ 5 minutes
4. 4

   Cook the starch: Return the pot containing the mixture to medium-low heat. Continue to stir and fold the starch vigorously. Cook for about 5-10 minutes, or until the starch loses its chalky white appearance and becomes translucent and slightly glossy. The texture should be firm and stretchy, pulling away from the sides of the pot as you stir.

   ⏱️ 5-10 minutes
5. 5

   Mold and serve: Once the starch reaches the desired translucent and stretchy consistency, remove it from the heat. Using a damp serving spoon or your hands (lightly greased or dampened), quickly mold the starch into a smooth mound or individual portions. Serve immediately with your favorite Nigerian soup, such as Banga soup or White soup.
