Cooking Instructions

To make the amagwinya, sift the flour, yeast, salt and sugar into a bowl. Add the water and stir until well combined.

Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes or until the dough is soft and pliable.

Cover and leave in a warm place for 40 minutes or until doubled in size. Punch down the dough and knead for a minute. Divide into balls.

Set aside on a tray in a warm place and leave to double in size once more, about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium heat. Check the temperature from time to time by dropping a small piece of dough into the oil. It should cook through without browning too quickly.

When the oil is ready, add 2–3 dough balls and cook for 3 minutes, turning halfway. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper. Cook the remaining dough in the same way. Place each ball on onto a small skewer.

Heat the sweetcorn in a saucepan over a low heat. Stir in the remaining ingredients until the cheese is melted. Serve with the amagwinya.
