Fufu

Directions

1. 1
   Bring 6 cups of water to a rapid boil in a large, heavy pot.
2. 2
   Combine the two ingredients and add to the water.
3. 3
   Stir constantly for 10-15 minutes - a process that needs two people for best results: one to hold the pot while the other stirs vigorously with a strong implement (such as a thick wooden spoon). The mixture will become very thick and difficult to stir, but unless you are both vigilant and energetic, you'll get a lumpy mess.
4. 4
   When the fufu is ready (or you've stirred to the limits of your endurance), dump about a cup of the mixture into a wet bowl and shake until it forms itself into a smooth ball.
5. 5
   Serve on a large platter alongside a soup or stew.
