Uganda

Ugali (this is a starchy filler, a very common concept throughout Africa. next time you eat sautee'd leafy greens or meat with sauce, consider making Ugali to scoop it up with, just for a taste of Africa!)

-1 C. water
-1 tsp. salt
-1 C. milk
-1 C. white cornmeal

1) Boil the water with the salt in a saucepan.
2) In a separate bowl, stir the milk into the white cornmeal. Keep stirring until it is smooth.
3) Then slowly pour the cornmeal mixture into the boiling salted water. Stir this mixture constantly for a couple of minutes until it starts to thicken. Turn the heat on the stove to low and continue to cook the ugali for about 10 - 15 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes.
4) Keep cooking and stirring until the ugali is very stiff and thick and pulls away from the sides of the saucepan.
