Add the minced garlic and finely chopped onion and cook over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until soft but not brown.
Add 2 cups water and bring to a rapid boil.
Add the cornmeal in a thin stream through your fingers, stirring vigorously to prevent lumps. The mixture should be the consistency of soft ice cream.
