Melt the butter in a copper pan with a handle and heat it on low heat without burning it. When the oil becomes foamy, add coarsely ground corn flour (corn semolina) gradually. Stir continuously with a wooden spoon until the cornmeal turns brown.
Slowly add 1 glass of cold water to the roasted corn flour and continue mixing. When the water is gone, add 1 more glass of water and eat it. When the corn flour swells, add the shredded cheeses and continue mixing quickly.
When the nail colors take color, the cheeses will be melted and circumcised. Check it by ventilation. You can take the nailing hot and serve with fresh corn bread (or village bread). For an authentic presentation, prepare and treat copper fields. Enjoy your meal!
