For a more authentic flavor, consider using a traditional mortar and pestle to mash the fufu. This requires significant arm strength but yields a unique texture. The amount of butter needed may vary depending on the moisture content of the cassava and plantains. Start with 1/2 cup and add more as needed to achieve a smooth, pliable dough. Fufu is best served fresh and hot. If making ahead, keep warm in a low oven or steam until ready to serve.
