Ghana Toasted Cornmeal Porridge

Ingredients:

2 cups ablemamu (finely ground, roasted corn)

3-1/2 cups milk, hot

8 teaspoons brown sugar, or more, according to taste

Cooking Instructions:

To make the ablemamu, dry-roast 2-1/2 cups ordinary popcorn kernels. Remove from the heat just before the popcorn begins to pop, then cool and grind until powdery and fine in a spice or coffee grinder. Cool overnight. Place the ablemamu in 4 cereal bowls. In each bowl, pour in a portion of the hot milk and add some of the sugar. Stir to mix thoroughly. It will thicken and swell to form a typical Tom Brown porridge. Sit back, smell it, tuck in.
