Key things to note when making akara

1. Mixing - mix the paste till it is fluffy this helps to make it airy or when blending with Blender let it spin well.

2. Oil - ensure there is enough oil for frying.

3.like it is said earlier it didn't stay longer if it did the colour will be darker.

4. Remove to put in a kitchen towel to remove excess oil.

5. Some people add egg to give it volume
I love to add diced onions

pocohantas:
For soups, I still think crayfish and all sorts of dry fishes remains the best seasoning. Use really tasty ones and when it is time to add salt/seasoning cubes- you won’t have need for plenty of it.

For stew, garlic, ginger and well fried tomatoes would go a long way. I hope this helps as I don’t know anything about that seasoning.

Thanks madam you are right about the fishes.
I appreciate. I no Igbo people have different kinds of fishes. I see it at their stalls.

Dyt:
Do people still use salt?


Ok
I use but just a pinch

MSG is common is a few parts and some are allergic to it cos of its high sensitive taste
Not sure tho
But if you use MSG seasoning then you don't need salt cos it's got high percentage of sodium

Oh well
I really dunno

Salt I use is a little
For people who love salt will say my food has no salt. But I love my food even without it.
What I use salt mostly for is to wash meat, veggies.
Thanks for your input

I just bought this Adobo seasoning with pepper. Trying to reduce salt and any kind of msg seasoning. Even If I want to use them a cube occasionally.
Can't get the hang of it. Review online is great.
Tasted the thing kind of salty but with a kind of twist.

Pls your tot on it and usage?

Which seasoning do you use that doesn't have plenty msg?
