Fufu and pounded Yam are two different things. Cassava flour can be used to make fufu and Yam flour to make pounded Yam (poundo Yam as it's often called when made from flour).

I gave the lady at my local Nigerian food store the biggest smile when I, being the palest of English girls, went in and asked for Pounded Yam flour, I definitely made a new friend and found a great new store! Thank you so much for bringing these recipe techniques to everyone who loves them or like me, cant wait to try them! 😍xx

Lol “Don’t stop. Keep going, keep going”, I found that funny😂

Baby you were fighting the fufu. I love it. I plan on making some soon.

Fufu is from cassava while this one is from yam.

How many cups of water for one person?

😂😂 Naija food is labour intensive , but one of the most delicious food on the planet 😅😅😅

This was really helpful thanks 🔥

My husband and I were just talking about making this. Thanks for sharing! 🤗

Me, I'm a pro in making poundo yam, semo, wheat, amala.

Song please

I tried fufu and all the soups taht come with it .. I narrowed it down to my favorite..egusi no meat and fufu... but in Colorado I've only had it from one restaurant and honestly it's a little pricey... but now I moved away from that city and don't have any fufu near me ;( I need to learn to make this asap

What are the proportions? How many cups of pounded yam flour did you use?

This stuff is £55-£100 in the UK. I haven't had authentic pounded yam in London since childhood 😩 I still buy it tho!

It require a lot of energy and strength.

How many cups of yam powder did you use?

I've found an easy video on fufu finally! Does it taste more like dough or is it sweet like yams? I want to try to make fisherman soup for my first fufu try.

My dear sister Abi Wow😍 it's looks so good and so delicious my dear sister Abi enjoy much love for you my dear wonderful sister Abi ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👌🏼👍

Than you so much!!!

Is that Harina Ishola in the background?

ماشاء الله شكرا

what is the flour made of thanks

How long should the yam be cooked?

🌹JUNE 24, 2022🌹 “HOLD MY HAND~~AND TRUST. So long as you are conscious of My Presence with you, all is well. It is virtually impossible to stumble while walking in the Light with Me. I designed you to enjoy Me above all else. You find the deepest fulfillment of your heart in Me alone. Fearful, anxious thoughts melt away in the Light of My Presence. When you turn away from Me, you are vulnerable to the darkness that is always at work in the world. Don't be surprised by how easily you sin when you forget to cling to My hand. In the world, dependency is seen as immaturity. But in My kingdom, dependence on Me is a prime measure of maturity.” (JESUS CALLING)

Where can we get this pounded yam from the uk ?

Not sure which is easier,this or the actual pounding of boil yam?😂 Boiled yam in a food processor is probably the best option.weldone sha..

I thought fu fu flour was pure grounded yam but then the packet ingredients showed that refined wheat flour had been added to make it glutinous. Buyer beware !

8cups of water to how many cups of the flour?????

A lot of people are saying this ola ola company is not selling authentic powdered yam anymore, they say it potato powder. Do you have any other company you recommend?

Don’t break the cooker please! You need it!

Hot food inside plastic cling film ? Is there another more healthier way ?

When i ever i try the thickness over powers me and makes it difficult to turn/stir 😭😭😭

And again this is not 'fufu', it's poundo yam. Fufu is different o.

I think the first person to cook pounded yam didn’t have a kettle. Why put 4 cups of water into the pot when you can just put 3 cups and use hot water from the kettle to add if needed??? Ninja for you 🇳🇬😅

You didn’t say how much flour

It’s always a fight when making a well blended fufu. I be like “ bitch let me show you who’s in charge “!

This is not fufu..fufu is from cassava while pounded yam is from yam..don't miss it up so people can know the difference. Thanks ma

@ABI'S COOKING I'm sorry to tell you but this is not pounded yam because you neet to bye the fresh yam cook it till its soft and put it in a wooden bucket and pound it for at least 1hour with a wooden pole and the real fufu is made of fresh cassava and is cooked til its soft and then pressed true a really fine sif and then is also pounded like the yam for at least 1 hour non stop and you need to cook the yam and the cassava on a low heat for a couple of hours because the yam and the cassava is exactly poisonous that's way you shredded first and you wash it with water til the water is clear that's the way its done in Mother Africa 💪🏽

My African folks! When making an instructional videos, please, go straight to the point! All these other side stuff (describing spoons, describing the stores etc) is not needed oh! Thanks for the video anyway!

Fufu...pounded yam...she did say however one decides to describe it and the title speaks for that as well. I don't think it's a major big deal that she called it fufu just because it's not made with cassava. Ugh. Must we be complicated? It's HER fufu version and she did a fine job. Especially for someone who may want to try this as a beginner. Thank you ABI
