Hi
This is the first time I am making mielie cake. Do I need to boil the meilies before making it?
As its grated, I believe you should not have the need to boil the corn. I have not made this one myself as its been submitted by a member of my FB group so feel free to try it and let me ow how it turned out
Is is possible to use creamstyle corn if so how much pls
Hi Ashadia. To be honest I have not made this one with cream-style corn. Should you try it, my suggestion would be that you will have to compensate for the extra wet ingredients by adding more dry ingredients otherwise it will be watery. If you have tinned whole corn kernels you may wish to try that (without the liquid). Please let me know how it turned out. Thanks and good luck.
