Step by step recipe with photo

Abkhazian hominy or abysta is more often cooked from corn flour, but it is also possible from cereals. In consistency, it should turn out like porridge, and in taste it should be fresh.

The Abkhazian mamalyga is traditionally served with suluguni cheese. Moreover, suluguni can simply accompany porridge in the form of slices, and it can also be mixed immediately after cooking, i.e. with hot porridge.

Adjika Abkhazian, nut sauce, meat, vegetables, herbs … All this is served with hominy.

Ready Abkhazian mamalyga is not left in a saucepan or cauldron, but transferred to a dish. The surplus food can be fried in a pan the next day and served.

Prepare ingredients according to the list.

When cooking Abkhazian mamalyga, you must try to combine flour and water so that no lumps form! Flour is poured into boiling water with constant stirring. It's too difficult for me …

I immediately combine the flour with hot water, stir with a whisk.

Then I bring it to a boil with constant stirring.

I turn down the heat and boil for about five minutes, without stopping to stir. Excess moisture should evaporate, and in order for this to happen faster, depressions are made in the porridge to the bottom of the pan.

At the end of cooking, add butter and stir.

The porridge should come out well from the sides of the pot. Let the finished mamalyga brew for 10-20 minutes, depending on the amount. Usually, the porridge is pushed away from the walls, then dumped onto a dish. The result will be in the form of a loaf or a dome, the shape after the boiler is especially good, but after the pan it is also quite.

Alternatively, transfer the cornmeal hominy to serving bowls, then flip onto plates and serve to the eaters.

Abkhazian mamalyga is ready, place suluguni cheese on it or next to it, serve sauces, herbs, etc.

Enjoy your meal!
