This is a traditional Sudanese recipe for a classic accompaniment of boiled, yeasted, rye flour that is set into a bowl and turned out to be served with a tomato or chilli-based sauce.
Ingredients:
500g rye flour
15g yeast
100ml warm water
1 tsp salt
Method:
Dissolve the sugar in the water then add the yeast and set aside in a warm place until frothy. When ready mix the yeast mixture in a bowl along with the flour and 500ml cold water. Mix well, cover and set aside in a warm place to rise.
Add the salt to a pan along with 1l water. Bring to a boil and when boiling add the aseeda (yeast) mixture and mix in with a wooden spoon. Once it begins to thicken (add add a little more flour if needed you're looking for an almost custard-like consistency) then add 100ml water and bring to a bubbling simmer.
Pour the mixture into a bowl and allow to stand until it has cooled and thickened appreciably. Turn upside down onto a plate and serve covered with a tomato or chilli-based sauce (such as tagalia).
