Umfino (maize meal cooked with cabbage and leafy greens)

Serves 6

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cooking Time 35–40 minutes

Ingredients

salt, to taste
360 g maize meal
4 T vegetable oil
1 cup cabbage, thinly sliced
1 onion, halved and sliced
a handful celery leaves
1 large potato, peeled, cooked and cubed
2 cloves garlic
1 cup spinach, thinly sliced
2 T vegetable seasoning

Method

1. Bring 6 cups water to the boil in a large saucepan. Season with salt. While whisking, pour the maize meal into the water and stir until the pap is smooth and thick. Add a little extra water if necessary. Allow the pap to reach a stiff consistency and stir once more before reducing the heat. Cook the pap for 25 minutes, covered. Set aside and keep warm until ready to serve.

2. Heat a pan and add the vegetable oil. Sauté the cabbage, onion, celery leaves, potato, garlic and spinach over a medium-high heat, adding the seasoning. Allow the vegetables to soften and caramelise a bit. Check the seasoning.

3. Combine the maize meal with the sautéed vegetables and serve immediately.
