Ingredients

  • 2 cups Corn Flour
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 tsp Yeast

Method

  1. Mix corn flour and water in a large bowl until smooth, cover and let ferment at room temperature for 24–48 hours.
  2. The mixture should bubble and have a sour smell, indicating the natural yeast has activated.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  4. Spread a thin layer of the mixture and tilt to evenly coat the surface.
  5. Cook for 1–2 minutes or until the edges start to curl and the surface is dry.
  6. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes or until the other side is also dry and slightly puffed.
  7. Repeat with the remaining mixture to make 4–6 kitcha.
