Waiting for a cook
Ghana
Tom Brown is Ghana's roasted-grain porridge, the colour of milky tea: flour milled from roasted corn (often with roasted millet, groundnuts, soya beans and rice mixed in) is whisked into water and cooked to a smooth, nutty porridge, served with sugar, evaporated milk and bread. It is a breakfast for children and a weaning food, and the flour is made at home in big batches and taken to the mill. The name is old colonial English; the food is entirely Ghanaian.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 6 ingredients and 5 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
