Guest guest Posted April 2, 2002 Report Share Posted April 2, 2002 COU-COU INGREDIENTS 4 okras thinly sliced 4 cups boiling water 2 cups corn meal 2 cups cold water 1 tsp salt 1 tbsp butter METHOD Cook the okras in boiling water for 10 to 12 minutes.While they are cooking,mix the corn meal and cold water to a smooth paste. When the okras are soft, lower the heat, add salt and corn meal mixture, stirring constantly with a " cou-cou stick " (wooden spoon) until the mixture becomes fairly stiff. When mixture breaks away cleanly from the side of the saucepan, the cou-cou is ready. Butter a bowl, turn the mixture out neatly onto it, shaking it so that it takes on the shape of the bowl. Turn it out on to a serving dish, make an indentation in the top and place a knob of butter in it. Language is an expression of thought.
