Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.

Method

  1. Boil soft two large sweet potatoes.
  2. Mash them while hot with a small piece of lard or butter.
  3. Work it in finely sifted corn meal until tolerably stiff, and then work in enough water to make it a soft dough.
  4. Let it rise three hours or longer if you choose, and then bake it in a spider, or for a stove, na tin pan.
