CORN BREAD RECIPE
Mieliebrood
SOUTH AFRICA
This steamed Corn Bread Recipe is a favorite with the Zulu peoples of kwa Zulu Natal.
Although I have given the traditional method for making this corn bread the recipe may be altered by using whole kernel canned corn or sweetcorn if fresh cobs are not available.
Please do not attempt to substitute canned creamstyle corn into this Corn Bread recipe unless you want to end up with a gooey mess.
CORN BREAD INGREDIENTS:-
2 cups green mealies (shucked corn)
2 cups all purpose flour
2 Tbsp sugar
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
cold water
METHOD FOR MAKING CORN BREAD
Grind the corn using a mortar and pestle or the griding blade of a blender/liquidiser
Mix all the ingredients together and add enough water to form a stiff dough.
Set aside for 10 minutes
Place the mixture in a greased loaf pan and steam for about 1½ hours.
Actually, the traditionally correct way to make this corn bread is to put the dough into empty, clean, greased, 1lb vegetable tins, filling them ¾ full. These are actually easier to steam.
This corn bread recipe will make the equivalent of a 1 lb loaf, and as a steamed bread has an unusual texture and delicious taste |

Corn Bread may be served either hot or cold, either way it is delicious with lashings of butter. It makes a very pleasant change when served in place of toast with a traditional breakfast of bacon and eggs.The Afri Chef African Recipes cookbook contains more traditional African bread recipes amongst the over 260 African Recipes, from all over Africa.
