1. Bring 4 cups water to the boil and add the salt. Using a fork, stir the maize meal into the water to create lumps. Stir through to get a dry, crumbly consistency.

2. Once the water has “evaporated”, reduce the heat and cook for 25 minutes, covered. Once the umphokoqo is ready, fluff with a fork and turn out into a container to cool. Serve at room temperature with cold amasi poured over the top.
