| <h2>Directions on how to prepare <em>Ugali</em> <h2> | |
| <p>The following is the method I use to prepare <em>ugali</em></p> | |
| <ol> | |
| <li>Pour water in a Sufuria (Large deep Pan) and let it simmer until it starts to boil. It should completely boil</li> | |
| <li>Pour in a good quantity of the Maize Meal Flour. Wait for a few minutes as the water keeps boiling </li> | |
| <li> Turn the mixture with a long wooden spoon as you incorporate the Water and Flour. Add more flour but sprinkle it and continue mixing</li> | |
| <li> The mixture should start becoming heavier</li> | |
| <li>Keep mixing and stirring as you sprinkle more flour. The Ugali will begin to firm up</li> | |
| <li>Now the work starts. Hold the Sufuria (Deep cooking pan) with Mittens or heavy | |
| cloth to prevent burning your hands. Keep stirring the Flour with a wooden | |
| spoon like you are folding the Flour into itself</li> | |
| <li>The Ugali (Cornmeal) has now become firm. It will start coming off the | |
| sides of the cooking pan. Press it against the wall of the Sufuria | |
| (Deep cooking pan) with the wooden spoon</li> | |
| <li>Stick your wooden spoon under the pressed Ugali (cornmeal) and turn, remove it from the wall to the center of the pan</li> | |
| <li>Repeat the pressing of the Ugali (Cornmeal) and turning it to the middle of the pan. At this | |
| point the Ugali (Cornmeal) will start smelling really good. | |
| That's how you know the Ugali (Cornmeal) is cooking well</li> | |
| <li>Let the Ugali (Cornmeal) stay in the middle of the | |
| Sufuria (Deep cooking pan) and turn down the heat really low. | |
| After a few minutes press and turn it again</li> | |
| <li>Form the Ugali (Cornmeal) into a round form | |
| and remove from heat. Turn the Ugali (Cornmeal) onto a | |
| plate from the Sufuria (Deep cooking pan)</li> | |
| <li>Cover the plate with the cooking pan for a few minutes as you dip the wooden spoon into some water to make it wet</li> | |
| <li>Use the wet wooden spoon to press the Ugali | |
| (Cornmeal) into a round mound. As you press, keep turning the plate so that you can shape the whole Ugali (Cornmeal)</li> | |
| <p> And Alas! the meal is all ready; you can choose to warm the stew or if still warm, serve and enjoy the meal </p> | |
