Wrong & Right. Going by the descriptions of how beans is prepared, the best approximations for the names of the dishes are as follows:

Moi moi = Bean pudding
Akara = bean balls or fried bean-balls, or bean-fries

It's common for Nigerians to describe Akara as "bean cake" but this is totally wrong. For anything to qualify as cake, it must be BAKED. Akara is fried, not baked. Moi moi is cooked, not baked.

Moi-Moi is an african food, must everything has english name ?

moi moi

Moi moi in English is simply boiled GroundBeans

You Confidently get it wrong. Bean cake is Akara...

Dem dey fry cake? People calling Akara bean cake have always got it wrong. Moinmoin fits the name bean cake better because it can be done in a shape of cup, plate or molded in any form. Can you mold Akara in any shape you want?

Oga you are so so so wrong. Moi moi is bean pudding while akara is bean cake. In culinary presentations anything that is mushy is a pudding and anything harder that you can bite into and it still stays hard is a cake.

Moi moi = bean pudding

Stop trying to confuse people while convincing yourself.

MoiMoi, oole are both from Yoruba.

Moi Moi is Moi Moi. It is an African food so it must have an African name. Must everything have English names?
