Mieliepap Recipe

This mieliepap recipe tells you how make an old South African favorite that goes well with meat or as a breakfast porridge or cereal.

5 - 6 cups water (½ water, ½ milk for cereal)
1 cup corn flour
½ tsp. salt
1 tbsp. butter (optional, but it makes it taste better)

Boil the water in a pot and add the salt and butter. Slowly stir in the flour with a wok or fork. Turn the heat to medium and wait for your pap to start bubbling. Cover the pot with a lid and let the pap simmer for 30 - 45 minutes. (The longer and slower it steams, the better the taste.)

This can be eaten with milk and sugar for breakfast, or with brown gravy and braaivleis (BBQ'd meat).
