@@FloChinyere This is a great recipe but I do have one question. if you are wary of chemicals and already blended ogbono, egusi, spice mix etc. why do you and so many other fellow Nigerians and Africans use knorr or maggi cubes? They contain a lot of salt, msg, preservatives etc. Not to mention that they are produced by unilever and nestle respectively and their track record especially in Africa could not be worse.

Thanks for letting us in on the secret for a perfectly made Akara . I have not told anyone, but my secret has been adding a pinch of flour or pancake mix. Funny, but it works and nobody will know. I don’t have need of doing that now, hopefully. Thanks for letting me know to be patient in blending and letting the beans ferment.
