Peel it

Wash properly to be sparkling white

Pour in a bag and tie the bag properly to avoid spilling. Then place something heavy on it that can make it drain water fast.

Before pounding, mix your cassava with little water like you do your flour

Mould very big and put in a pot on fire and allow to simmer for about 30s or a minute

Remove from the pot and pound very well.. Should in case you notice any lumps in it, add little salt to the pot on fire. It will dissolve the lumps when it's finally done

Now mould it again. But this time it should be very small and make a hole in the mould and put in the pot on fire and allow to cook for about 10 to 15mins

Bring out and pound

Pound till it's very smooth.
