It was called pounded yam in the days when people use their physical energy to do everything, no technology, smartness or mental creativity was put to use then.
If oyinbo dey reason like you people, we will still be in the stone-age days of our fathers when we cut hectares of land with "cutlass" and walk on foot all the days of our lives.

As long as it has the texture and feel of real pounded yam, it's equally good. Whatever method, the result is the most important.

Greenhero:



Desperate indeed! Backward Mentality!

Wait sef, the ones forming slay mamas are not more desperate abi? Shior!!! Receive sense sha.

swiz123:
Quite an innovative idea; I am impressed

Greenhero:


Who told you the texture is the same. Go and read the lamentations of those who have tried it.

Gratefulheart01:


It's a lie from an archaic stone age man who feels land cut with machine is not as good as that cut with a cutlass. Assuming he said the texture or it doesnt draw like pounded yam, i would have believed. The taste is where he shot himself on the leg.

The only type of yam which doesn't taste like pounded yam is the yam dried under sun and the so called processed poundo-yam or whatever they call it, which tastes like semo-vita.

As long as u didn't put salt. Blend it, pound it, stir am for fire like fufu, it will still taste the same.

Proffdada:
Nice try but it will still be lumpy or granular which defeats the purpose of "pounded"

Pounded yam is one of the most loved fufu meals in Nigeria, it can be paired with any kind of soup especially vegetable and egusi soup.

I made this soft and pliable pounded yam with fresh yam today. In this method, you don’t need to cook or pound the yam. I found out it is very easy to make this and even if you don’t have a mortar at home, you can still enjoy your pounded yam swallow. You should also watch the video above on how to prepare this yam poundo practically.

You Need:

Pure White yam for this yam swallow.




VERY GOOD ONE BUT FINALLY, THIS IS BLENDED YAM SWALLOW AND NOT POUNDED YAM..

BOTH OF THEM DON'T LOOK ALIKE!
Steps on How to Make Pounded Yam with Raw Yam

1. Cut yam into rings and peel off the brown skin, cut the yam into smaller sizes and rinse with water to get rid of sand.
2. Bring the yam into a blender and add a little water to help the blender spin appropriately.
3. Pulse the blender for few minutes or until the yam is completely blended and appears smooth and almost runny.
4. Bring the blended yam into a stainless steel pot and place it on medium heat to get heated.
5. Use a wooden spatula to stir the yam paste for 1 minute, you will begin to notice the yam starting to come together.
6. Keep stirring until the yam starts to cook, when this has come together, reduce the heat and scrape the sides and bring the paste to the
middle. Sprinkle a little water and steam cook this on low flame for 5 minutes and stir intermittently.
7. Once the yam has cooked, it will look soft and pliable; take it off it and scoop into nylon bags to stay warm until you are ready to serve.
8. Pounded yam is ready, you can serve with egusi soup or any soup of your choice.
