Soak maize overnight in cold water. Drain then add to a large pan with a halved onion, halved bulb of garlic and 2 bay leaves. Add fresh water to cover, bring to the boil then partially cover and reduce to a simmer. Cook for approx. 2½ hours or until the maize kernels are soft. See full recipe on our website.
