Gradually add warm water and mix with ur hand until u arrive at a not too thick or watery mixture ( just like ur pap)while making sure there are no lumps
You must have put half pot of water on heat while preparing the mixture. If using nylon remember to leave little or no space and tie tighy…after that put them inside the boiling water in the pot… allow it to boil for about 30-45 mins depending on the quantity of okpa.
