Cooking Instructions

  1. Mix the flour, sugar, water, yeast and salt to form a very loose dough. Knead the dough for 10 minutes by gripping it and slapping it against the side of the mixing bowl. Put the dough into a clean, greased plastic shopping bag and knot closed. Place in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  2. Place a steamer over a saucepan of simmering water. Put the bag containing the dough inside the steamer and steam for 1 hour, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Serve with the chakalaka. 

FLAVOUR NOTE
Serve with hot chillies, tomatoes, pungent coriander and cumin.
