Conventional Ghanaian FuFu is made by boiling cassava or yam and plantain then pounding them into a glutinous mass, usually in a giant, wooden mortar and pestle. ( 1 kg Plantain to about 330 g Cassava or Yam - 3 : 1 ) This adaptation for non Africans may trouble you if you try to stick to minimally processed foods. But it's worth trying at least once. Here the "REPACEMENT FUFU":
2 1/2 cups Bisquick 2 1/2 cups instant potato flakes
Bring 6 cups of water to a rapid boil in a large, heavy pot. Combine the two ingredients and add to the water.
Stir constantly for 10-15 minutes -- a process that needs two people for best results: one to hold the pot while the other stirs vigorously with a strong implement (such as a thick wooden spoon).
The mixture will become very thick and difficult to stir, but unless you are both vigilant and energetic, you'll get a lumpy mess.
When the FuFu is ready (or you've stirred to the limits of your endurance!), dump about a cup of the mixture into a wet bowl and shake until it forms itself into a smooth ball. Serve on a large platter alongside a soup or stew.
