CREAMY SAMP

I like to cook hearty meals with abundant nourishment. I mostly prefer cooking samp in a slow cooker—the best thing ever for cooking samp!

Samp consists of dried maize kernels that have been crushed (but not too finely). Samp forms the basis of many traditional dishes of the people of South Africa

METHOD

1. Drain the samp (after soaking overnight) and bring to a boil in a large pot on the stove. 

2. Simmer slowly until soft or to the preferred texture. 

3. Add salt to taste. 

4. Once the samp is ready to serve, add cream and mix well. 

5. Leave on the stove to rest for five minutes and serve.
