Preparation Instructions
1. Prepare the Cassava
Peel the cassava and wash it thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt.
2. Grate the Cassava
Using a grater or food processor, grate the cassava into fine shreds and place it in a large bowl.
3. Fermentation
Add enough water to cover the grated cassava and let it soak for about 2-3 days at room temperature. The cassava should become slightly sour due to fermentation.
4. Drain Excess Water
After fermentation, drain the excess water from the cassava using a fine sieve or cloth.
5. Steaming
Place the drained cassava in a steaming basket lined with banana leaves or plastic wrap. Steam for about 30-40 minutes until cooked through.
6. Seasoning
Once steamed, sprinkle with salt and mix well.
7. Serve
Serve hot as a side dish or accompany with a sauce or stew of your choice.
