6 min06:00 - 6
Beat the eggs, pour them over the tomara, and cook 5 more minutes until the eggs set.
5 min05:00 - 7
Slice the fritter and serve hot.
💡 Tip: If the tomara stays too wet, the cornmeal clumps; letting it sit in the strainer for 6 minutes after boiling keeps it from falling apart in the pan.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve tomara fritter hot without adding yogurt, with optional cornbread and tea on the side.
