Equipment

Ingredients

For The Hominy

  • 3/4 cup uncooked hominy
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon salt

For The Porridge

  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup coconut condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoons cornmeal fine
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg grated
  • 1/4 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • 2 dried cinnamon leaves optional
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Rinse soaked hominy with water. Place it in a medium saucepan and pour water over it.
  • Place the saucepan on medium heat and add cinnamon leaves and salt to it.
  • Let the mixture boil for about 45 minutes or until the hominy is cooked. Make sure you stir the mixture after every 10 minutes so avoid hominy sticking at the bottom of the pan.
  • When the water evaporates and about ½ cup of water is left, reduce the heat and remove cinnamon leaves.
  • Pour in coconut milk and stir so that it combines well.
  • Next, add cornmeal and stir vigorously so that no lumps are formed.
  • Let it cook for 2-3 minutes. Add condensed coconut milk, nutmeg, cinnamon powder, and salt and mix well. Let it simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Serve.
