Ingredients

Method

Peel the starchy vegetables and cut them into chunks.

Place the chunks into a large pot and add water and salt.

Bring the water to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for about 20-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft.

Drain the vegetables and reserve some of the cooking water.

Mash the vegetables until they are smooth. You can use a food processor or a traditional mortar and pestle. If the mixture is too dry, add a bit of the cooking water.

Serve the foufou with a soup or stew.
