  • 4 cups water
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. 1Bring the water to a rolling boil in a heavy pot with a pinch of salt.
  2. 2Sprinkle in about a third of the maize flour, whisking to prevent lumps.
  3. 3Reduce heat to medium and gradually add the remaining flour, stirring constantly with a strong wooden spoon.
  4. 4Continue stirring and turning the mixture vigorously as it thickens, about 8-10 minutes, until it pulls away from the sides of the pot.
  5. 5Wet a plate or bowl with water and turn the ugali out, shaping it into a firm dome with the back of the spoon.
  6. 6Serve warm alongside stew, fish, or greens.
