Steps

1

Sieve the corn meal to remove grits. Mix together with sugar, ginger powder and cayenne pepper
2

Add 2 cups of water in a pot and place on the stove on low heat. Add one third of the mixed corn meal and turn continuously as if making semovita. Makes a firm dough
3

Scoop dough onto a clean surface,let cool a bit. Knead in the remaining corn meal. Let cool completely. Then proceed to roll into sticks. Dust your hand with corn meal or all purpose flour because it can be sticky to your hand. On simply wet your hands and roll up
4

Proceed to fry in pan on medium heat in a vegetable oil. It's usually longer but I made it shorter for my pan to accommodate.scoop out into a sieve. Drain the veg oil.voila! Snack time taken care of.
