Okra and cornmeal mush

Directions

1. Add the okra to a large pan of boiling water and cook until just tender (about 12 minutes).

2. Meanwhile, begin preparing your fungi. In a bowl whisk 40g of the cornmeal into 180ml of the water, combining until smooth.

3. Add this mixture back to the remaining 180ml of boiling water, again whisking to combine.

4. Transfer to a pan and heat gently.

5. Whilst whisking continually add the remaining cornmeal in a single steady stream to the pan.

6. Now drain the okra and add to the fungi.

7. Cook, stirring constantly until the fungi reaches your desired consistency.

8. Finally stir-in the butter and chilli flakes then season to taste with salt.
