Mealie Bread Recipes (Maize/Corn Bread)

Posted by Chirundu Jason Dec 5

In Zimbabwe and indeed South Africa, Corn or Maize is known as mealies. For many people they are part of their daily diet where they are ground to make Mielie Meal and then made into dishes like Sadza. There are also a number of Southern African Recipes to make bread from Mealies that are not only delicious but really easy to make. I have gathered together three of below, the first one uses corn off the cob, but the others use tinned corn (sweetcorn):

Traditional Steamed Green Mealie Bread Recipe

To make this bread you need to use a slightly green mealie (at the hard dough stage). You will know if it is right, if you take a kernel and press it and some liquid shoul come out, but most of the starchy kernel should remain between fingers. Ingredients 750 ml Fresh green mealies, cut off the cob 75 ml flour 25 ml sugar 10 ml baking powder or sachet yeast 5 ml salt 30 ml butter

Cut the kernels off cob and then rub the cob with the back of a knife to remove remaining portions of kernels Mash/mince these green mealies Mix together all the ingredients Moisten a cotton cloth and sprinkle with a light coat of flour and then put in a colander Pour mixture into cloth and bind tightly, but allow space for bread to rise If using yeast, use buttered tins and allow mixture to stand till bubbling and started rising. Cover tightly Steam for 2 2.5 hours Serve hot from the pan with butter and a dusting of pepper

Easy Mealie Bread (Corn Bread)

This is one of my favourite Zimbabwean / South African recipes and the best bit is that it is soo easy: Ingredients 2 cups biscuit mix 1 cup creamed corn (Usually found tinned) 1 tablespoon sugar 1 egg 1/2 cup whole milk 2 ounces butter, melted

Method Place the biscuit mix, creamed corn, and sugar in a large bowl. Add the egg and milk, and stir just until combined. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9 baking pan. Place the mealie mixture into the pan, and coat with the melted butter. Bake for 20 minutes. Easypeasy!
