Nsima

== Ingredients ==
* 1 cup ufa (cornmeal or cassava flour) for two people
* 2¾-3 cups water for each cup ufa
* butter or margarine optional
== Directions ==
# Use a wooden spoon to stir nsima.
# Heat the water in the saucepan until luke warm.
# Mix a little of the ufa with the water, stirring well to make sure there are no lumps.
# Bring to a boil, stirring well, then lower the heat and let boil gently for a few minutes.
# The mixture should look like a thin transparent porridge.
# Sprinkle the remaining ufa over, a little at a time, stirring continuously to avoid lumps from forming, until the desired consistency is reached.
# Keep stirring until the nsima is smooth and well cooked.
# A little butter or margarine may be stirred in at this stage.
