Ingredients
  

  • 750 ml water
  • A pinch of salt
  • 350g maize meal
  • 2 T butter
  • 5 T soya sauce
  • 5 T teriyaki sauce
  • 200 g thin beef strips
  • 2 T olive oil 
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced 
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 x 10 cm piece ginger peeled and grated 
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste 
  • 125 ml sweet chili sauce
  • 2 spring onions, sliced 

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-sized saucepan, bring the water and salt to a rapid boil. Add half the maize meal, reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 8 minutes. Stir the mixture and add the remaining maize meal, a little at a time
  • Stir and beat it against the sides of the saucepan with the back of the wooden spoon. This should take about 5 minutes. 
  • Reduce the heat further, cover, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Add the butter and mix. Remove from the heat and cool slightly. 
  • Press two spoonfuls of pap into each cup of a greased muffin tray to create a basket or cup-like shape. Set aside. 
  • Marinate the beef strips in half the soy and teriyaki sauces for 10 minutes. 
  • In a large frying pan, heat the oil and sauté the onion, garlic, and ginger for a minute. Add the marinated beef strips, season with pepper, and stir-fry for 3 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. 
  • Add the remaining soya and teriyaki sauces, sweet chili sauce, and spring onion, and cook for 2 minutes. Fill the pap baskets and serve immediately.
