Umbako
Ingredients
- Cake flour (210g)
- Wholewheat flour (185g)
- Salt, cayenne pepper, instant yeast
- Whole sweetcorn (410g)
- Two mealies (drained) corn cut off the cobs
- Brown sugar
- Eggs (2)
- Oil
- Sesame seeds
Method
Mix the flour, yeast, cayenne pepper, salt, corn, and sugar in a big bowl.
Whisk the eggs together with oil and about 250ml of warm water.
Gradually, add the whisked eggs into the dry ingredients. Make sure that you pour it little at a time.
Keep mixing everything until you are sure that the ingredients are combined.
Grease a loaf of tin, and then, stylishly dust it with a little flour.
Pour the mixture inside the tin and allow it to rise for the next hour in a warm place.
At this stage, you can then sprinkle sesame seeds on it while you preheat your oven at 180 ºC.
Transfer the tin into the oven and allow it to bake until a skewer that you insert into it comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and your Umbako would be ready for consumption.
