Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Place the dried purple corn in a large pot with the water, cinnamon sticks, and cloves.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure the corn is well rinsed before adding to the pot.
2
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 45 minutes, or until the corn kernels are tender and the liquid has turned a deep purple color.
Aproximativ 45 min.
Nota bucătarului: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
3
Carefully strain the liquid into a clean pot, discarding the corn, cinnamon sticks, and cloves. This purple liquid is the base for your mazamorra.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Press on the corn to extract as much liquid as possible.
4
Add the diced apple, pineapple, chopped prunes, and chopped apricots to the purple liquid.
5
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the fruits are tender.
Aproximativ 15 min.
6
Stir in the sugar and lime juice until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Taste and adjust sweetness if desired.
7
In a small bowl, whisk together the sweet potato starch and the cold water to create a smooth slurry.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Make sure there are no lumps in the slurry for a smooth pudding.
8
Gradually pour the starch slurry into the simmering fruit mixture, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Pour slowly in a thin stream while stirring vigorously.
9
Continue to cook, stirring, for another 3-5 minutes, until the mazamorra thickens to your desired consistency.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: It will thicken more as it cools.
10
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with ground cinnamon.
