Introduction

Hello everyone on @steemitfoods, I am @patience90 and I want to share my Akara recipe with you.
Akara is a common snacks in Nigeria made with beans.

Ingredients

• Beans
• Ginger
• Pepper
• Onion
• Seasoning cubes
• Vegetable oil
• Water

Recipe

• 4 cups of beans
• Handful of fresh pepper
• 6 seasoning cubes
• 1 liter of vegetable oil
• Onion bulb
• Little ginger
• 3cl of water

Preparation

Firstly of all, I measured 4 cups of beans, selected the chaff and stones out of it. And then washed it and put in a plastic container.

I washed my onion, pepper and ginger and added into the beans and grinded it into paste

After grinding, I added my cooking cubes after smashing them into powder and then stired it thoroughly into smooth paste

• I now set my fry pan on the fire and added my vegetable oil and allow to heat to 100 degrees.
  Then I scoopped a little quantity of my beans paste using a deep plastic spoon and added into the hot oil. Little by little until enough quantity is added into the oil then I allow to fry.

After a while, I use my spoon to turn it over so the other side can cook also

	When it fried into golden brown, I now scooped the fried Akara using a long spoon and placed in a plastic colender to drain the oil properly.

	After a little while, I turned it into a food warmer to keep it hot because it is best eaten hot.

• Repeat the act until you finish frying all the beans paste.

Finally, my Akara is ready

Conclusion

Akara can either be served with pap or water. It can also be eaten with bread.
