Fufu [0000652]

Ingredients:

2 cups cassava flour (gluten-free)
1 cup water
Salt to taste
Gluten-free hot water for adjustments
Plantains or yams (optional, for variety)
Water for boiling
Gluten-free vegetable soup or stew for serving
Additional water for dipping hands while shaping
Banana leaves (optional, for traditional serving)

Steps:

In a bowl, mix cassava flour with water and salt to form a smooth, thick paste.
In a pot, bring water to a boil.
Gradually add the cassava mixture to the boiling water, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
Cook and stir until the mixture thickens and becomes stretchy.
If needed, adjust consistency with hot water.
For variety, you can make fufu using plantains or yams by boiling and mashing them.
Wet your hands and shape the fufu into round portions.
Serve the gluten-free fufu with your favorite vegetable soup or stew.
Optionally, use banana leaves for a traditional presentation.
