Masa is a famous street food in my street, which is usually fried every morning and evening along Akpata road by an elderly woman. In the northern part of Nigeria, mass is a well known food that is similar to a pan fried rice cake, which is made into an oval shape. Like the Masa In my street, it is prepared using varieties of ingredients and some onions and ginger. However, the complete ingredients are details below.
- Ingredients :
- Raw rice or maize
- sugar or salt
- Dry yeast
- Onion
- Teaspoon ground akaun (cooking potash) (Optional)
- Pepper

How it is prepared or cooked Masa
Note, you can be used either rice or maize in preparing Masa and as well sugar or salt to prepare Masa.
Soak the maize for an hour
Divide the soaked maize into two

Join both the cooked and uncooked soaked maize and grind
Mix ingredients i.e. seasoning cubes, salt, fresh pepper and onion
Heat your pan over medium heat. Wipe a few drops of oil over it, stir the batter and pour in 3–4 tablespoons, dependingon the size of the pan.
Lastly, fry.

The selling price of Masa in my street is 3 Masa for 50NGN (0.23 Steem).
