Maybe your beans cake mix was too thick... Try making it a bit more softer and check the temperature 🌡️ of your oil too.
ReplyDeleteNo breakfast today.... Barbecued seafoods with salad 🥗 for later.
Ok i'm having akara and milky custard this morning.
ReplyDeleteJust had a mixture of tin tomato, milk and malt.
ReplyDeleteWill eat plantain porridge later.
Ehn, you say what?
DeleteTomato paste mix with all those?😮
Plantain pottage
DeleteThat's because you didn't in corporate air inside before frying it. Whisk it very well after blending next time before frying and viola..

ReplyDeleteJeweluchi, the possible reasons your akara sank is because your beans was too watery, and most importantly, you didn’t incorporate air into the beans. You need to thoroughly mix the beans to be fluffy. If you have a mixer, better for you. Once your beans is thoroughly mixed, you’ll actually see that the texture is different, and you are good to go.
ReplyDeleteNo breakfast zone 😐😐 I'm currently making mama-put stew 🍲 with enough assorted,kpomo and fried mackerel fish! I will boil brown rice later and download it with chilled raspberry juice🥳
ReplyDeleteChef Stella, whip air into your beans until it turns very fluffy like when you beat egg whites until it turns white. Then add whatever you want to add and fry in oil that is not smoking hot but hot enough.
ReplyDeleteIt's been long I made akara. Will try making very soon.
ReplyDeleteHaving our usual for breakfast.
I'm having akara and pap too.
ReplyDelete@jeweluchi,may be your mixture was too watery,i can confidently go for the best made akara competition anywhere,yeah!
Will be having plantain porridge later.
ReplyDeleteJewel, did you stir the akara in a motar to make it fluffy before frying?
Ji mmili oku with plenty dry fishes, pepper types and smoked chicken.
ReplyDeleteThe kids had pancake and Horlick drinks.
The akara.
To get a fluffy yummy akara;
1.Soak beans for at least 2 hours before blending to a paste.
2. Salt or seasoning cubes should be last to be added.
3. For 2 cups of beans, use a small mixer and beat 2 raw eggs till real fluffy and rich creamy. Add to the beans paste and blend both till creamy.
4. Don't use a skillet pan or frying pan, use a narrow deep frying pot, the oil should be half of the pot.
5. Beans paste should not be too watery, if you scope, bend the spoon to check that it glides off the spoon slowly and not flow out.
6. The oil shouldn't be too hot,just hot.
Drop a small mold of paste to test the hot oil. If it floats you're good to go.
I have come across this adding of eggs into akara mix online but yet to try it. What does it do to the mix??
Delete@ baby Rella, the eggs ensures that the akara doesn't come out looking deflated but roundish. It a rising agent.
DeleteI drank tea and bread this morning

Then fried potato and egg for dinner, i ll eat it early to avoid bloating
