  • 750 ml Water

  • 4 tablespoons Popped amaranth (kiwicha)
  • 4 teaspoons Chancaca syrup

  1. 1

    In a medium saucepan, mix the purple corn flour with a small amount of cold water to form a smooth paste, avoiding lumps.

  2. 2

    Add the remaining water, cane sugar, cinnamon stick, and cloves to the saucepan.

  3. 3

    Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.

  4. 4

    Pour the hot purple corn porridge into four individual bowls.

  7. 7

    Halve the granadillas and scoop out the pulp with seeds. Distribute the granadilla pulp over each bowl of porridge.
