Describing how the method works, Osei Bonsu indicated that unlike kneading the dough, a small non-stick bowl is used for mixing the dough or powder (kokonte, akple or fufu powder) with hot water in a saucepan to obtain the desired thickness.

The bowl is then filled with the thick paste and covered.

The non-stick bowl is then placed in a cooking pot filled with water and in a matter of only 25 minutes, the food is ready to be consumed.

Osei Bonsu added in conclusion that the special non-stick bowls used for the process can be produced in commercial quantities if he obtains funding.
