Making Healthy Akara Balls Without Eggs, Onions Or Crayfish

 akara and akamu served with honey

Dear Diary,
I published a post on making healthy akara balls at home. In
that post,
 I explained how to make akara balls. From skinning the beans,
to milling or blending with the ingredients, to frying in hot oil and serving HOT.
In case you missed that post, you can find it HERE.

 skinning beans for akara balls

On my first akara making post, the ingredients included crayfish and eggs.
It was very rich and tasty. While we the adults enjoyed it so much,
 two of my girls said the akara smelled like fish and they didn't like it much.
 I promised to make the regular akara balls for them,
and that is just what I did here. The only ingredients I used here are :

• Skinned beans
• Red Pepper
• Salt
• water
• Vegetable oil

Frying the akara is always the same,
just fetching the salted ground beans and dropping in the hot vegetable oil.
 Frying is the same as THIS HERE

After frying the akara, the corn starch (akamu) is cooked with boiling water,
sweetened and served hot.
The akamu served here is sweetened with honey,
while the one served in my earlier post was sweetened with sugar. See the recipe HERE.

Enjoy this in the morning. For those who cannot tolerate onions, eggs and even crayfish, this is very good for you.
I enjoyed this meal!
