HOW TO PREPARE UGALI

In a pot, add water and salt and bring to a boil. Slowly add the cornmeal and stir till it is thick and has a dough-like consistency. Once it reaches this consistency, add a little water, cover your pot and allow it to cook for 4 minutes on medium heat. When the Ugali is cooked, scoop portions of it and shape like a ball onto a plate.

Your Ugali is ready to serve with any soup of your choice.
