Tradional South African staple.

Ingredients

 * 500ml water (2 cups)
 * 1 1/2 tsp salt

Directions
Take a large fork (2 pronged meat fork is best) and stir the mixture until the pap is a fine-grained crumble (similar to coucous). Re-cover set over a low heat and allow to simmer gently for 45 minutes. Serve hot in place of rice or mashed potatoes.
