Ingredients

Instructions

  • Wash the malanga to get rid of dirt. Peel the vegetable to remove its skin.
  • Cut the malanga into equal-sized chunks.
  • In a large pot, pour water and place it over medium heat. Bring the water to a boil.
  • Once the water starts to boil, add malanga chunks and boil them for about 25 minutes or until they are tender.
  • Once cooked, drain the malanga and run cold water over them.
  • Transfer them to a large bowl.
  • Add vegan butter and salt. Using a potato masher, mash the malanga so that the vegan butter is fully combined, and you get a sticky dough.
  • Using your palms, shape the dough into small equal sized balls and serve these with your favorite stew. Enjoy!
