FURA

INGREDIENTS

1 cup millet
4 negro pepper
1 teaspoon cloves
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 inch ginger (fresh or dry)
1/2 teaspoon salt

PROCEDURE

Wash the gero to remove any sand then dry it.

Blend the spices with the millet and it can also be blended separately. After mixing it well, add some water untill you get a thick but slightly runny consistency. Cover it leave for 2 days.

After 2 days, check on it and remove the top lather that looks a little bit foamy. Add the salt and place in a pot on fire. Keep stirring it for about 10 to 15 minutes untill it darkens in color and becomes a dough.

Take off the fire and leave to cool a little then mould into balls. Place a pot on fire and bring to a boil then place the fura balls into the water for 2 minutes. Remove gently and place on a plate. It's done but you can sprinkle gero powder for that authentic look.

Enjoy with some homemade yoghurt. Blend it with the yogurt and a little sugar can be added
