👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Prepare the Tô: In a large bowl, mix 1 cup of millet flour with 1 cup of water to form a smooth paste. Set aside.
💡 專業提示: Ensuring a smooth paste prevents lumps in the final Tô. - 2
In a large pot, bring the remaining 5 cups of water to a rolling boil. Gradually add the millet flour paste while stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
💡 專業提示: Stirring constantly is crucial as the mixture thickens. - 3
Continue stirring and cooking over medium heat until the mixture thickens significantly. Once it's too thick to stir easily, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for another 10 minutes.
💡 專業提示: The Tô should be very thick and smooth, pulling away from the sides of the pot. - 4
Remove from heat, stir in the butter and salt. Shape the Tô into small balls using wet hands and set aside.
💡 專業提示: Wetting your hands prevents the Tô from sticking. - 5
Prepare the Okra Sauce: In a separate pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened.
- 6
Add the chopped tomatoes and minced garlic, cook for another 5 minutes until tomatoes break down.
- 7
Add the chopped okra, crushed stock cube, salt, pepper, and optional dried fish or smoked meat. Add about 1 cup of water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until okra is tender and the sauce has thickened.
💡 專業提示: The okra will naturally thicken the sauce. - 8
Serve the Tô balls hot, with the okra sauce spooned over or served on the side.
💡 專業提示: Tô is traditionally eaten with the right hand, forming a small ball and dipping it into the sauce.
