I fried akara aka Bean cake today

in GEMS4 years ago

It's a tradition for us to fry bean cake every weekend. This weekend I ate it with corn starch locally called akamu or starch.

Ingredients to make bean cake

Beans

Pepper

Salt

Maggi

Groundnut oil.

Preparations

I ground the beans with a grinding machine so it could look like this;

Then I mixed it with Maggi, salt and pepper. Immediately after I put the groundnut oil and allow to heat.

Later on I checked using a spoon of akara to know if the oil is hot enough.

Since it's hot enough, I added others for it to fry. Repeated the process until I'm done frying.

Kindly note: Bring out a small quantity to fry and add salt. Don't add salt at once to all of them because if left for a long time it would become watery.

After frying my akara looks like this

Then served with smoothly done corn starch aka akamu
