Prepare the Xima: In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Gradually whisk in the cornmeal, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring frequently, until very thick and porridge-like. If it becomes too thick, add a little more hot water.
