Mealie Pap

Boil the Water

In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil over medium heat. Add the salt.

Add Maize Meal

Gradually stir in the maize meal while continuously stirring to prevent lumps. Reduce the heat to low.

Cook the Pap

Cover the saucepan and let the pap simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The mixture should thicken and become smooth.

Add Butter (Optional)

If using, stir in the butter until melted and fully incorporated.

Adjust Consistency

For a creamier texture, add a bit of milk or cream if desired. Stir until well mixed.
