    Step 9.

    After 5 minutes from the start of the grits stewing, open the lid and check if there is enough liquid in the pan. If there is not enough liquid (and this can happen if you used not very juicy tomatoes), then pour in a little boiling water, literally half a cup, and simmer until tender.
