Currently on my weight loss journey and I’ve been avoiding akara, I’ve thought of a way to bake it and in my head it comes out like this. It’s so beautiful seeing this because now I fe confident doing this ❤
The next generation of African chefs will totally revolutionize culinary techniques on the continent. I’m scared when I see kids struggle with obesity and diabetes and it’s all due to unhealthy cooking practices that we just don’t want to admit are harmful. Thanks for this video
Hi James, I agree with in general. But traditional deep fried akara, has no casual link nor correlation with diabetes or obesity. In fact, it's quite healthy. Not all deep fried is bad. Tomorrow the oyinbo will discover this and start saying so. Obesity and diabetes is on the rise due to fast foods, fried pastries, sugary drinks, snacks and sweets (which are the opposite of akara). This akara pancake, is not akara, but a new derivative. And is ok. But, If e no be Panadol .. Also, custard is not akamu/ogi (Not in a million years) nor is yogurt the same as milk (I make Greek yogurt almost every week, my freezer is always filled with containers of whey). But this economy sha. Summary, after years of eating all these oyinbo technique of cooking Naija food, like custard, I have come to appreciate the basic akara and pap, even the one sold on the street. Do you remember Akara ekpo? Homework for you. BTW James, what do you think of the fruit with condensed milk popular in Naija?? Cheers.
It is true what you said about our ancestors but you are making a catastrophic mistake if you eat, sugar, grains, bread, pasta, noodles, pizza , maggi cubes and thousands of ultra processed foods in the supermarkets. Then when you deep fry your Akara in seed oil which is effectively engine oil then eat such food along with ultra processed/ processed foods you are opening the gate for massive inflammation, insulin resistance, diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer and heart disease. The reason you ancestors lived longer, the fried akara but they did not eat processed food in tins and plastics. I hope you get the drift here?
This looks so amazing ... Definitely I'm going to try this out, it looks so better and again with the cost of living now vegetable oil is so expensive.. ❤❤❤❤... To me this is saving cost and I'm going to try it out... Thank you Winnie❤
Winnie, this is even healthier than the original pancake made from white flour which is all carbohydrate. Beans is protein. Thank you for this recipe. I can eat alternative pancake now without fear of carb.
Winne, you have really done justice to your cooking, I love it, so anyways I want to purchase this your cooking apron, it is so beautiful, pls I will need two pairs, ow can I purchase them?
😍😍 This is absolutely awesome, thanks for the information. This will also probably be nice for puff - puff for most of us trying to reduce our cholesterol. Thanks again, I'm sure going to make this new akara method. I'm also going into the adventure of puff - puff pancake with your Akara method as I love puff puff so much. I hope it will work. 👌😊🤗.
Ha Winne oooo, you don "kill" the ancestral akara, I am just imagining the akara ancestors starring at this TH-cam video and asking among themselves "which of our offspring fall victim like this, which one she dey press down among us" ha! I will definitely try it 😂😂😂....but akara ancestors will not like this video ooo...be warned 😅😅😅
@@sweetchildafrique5564 😂😂😂 our ancestors have lived Dear… we are the ones on the scene now. I think it’s a great idea to invent new and healthier things the future generation can thrive better on.😊✨
@@ZeeliciousFoods I totally agree especially for good health and to "survive" the current economic situation...please keep researching and reinventing, we are stuck with your channel ma'am.... 🤣
It depends on where you find yourself. In Nigeria, yes, but it seems that only Nigeria is silent on the K. In the U.K. and other countries, the K is very present in the pronunciation.
😂 the only things you didn’t add which I will Winnie, are rodo and shombo, your Akara batter has no pepper. However it’s a great recipe and I intend trying it out ❤
This recipe has been in existence, we call it akara ikoko i.e pot akara
Currently on my weight loss journey and I’ve been avoiding akara, I’ve thought of a way to bake it and in my head it comes out like this. It’s so beautiful seeing this because now I fe confident doing this ❤
This is indeed a new twist to the regular akara & custard I know growing up. Very good presentation Winne!
This is better than the normal akara deep frying ❤
Thank you 🙏
That akara will send you to the toilet😅
Makes sense. It may not achieve the full fluffiness from frying but from health point of view this would do.
Definitely trying this. Thanks for sharing 👍
Looks amazingly delicious and healthy. Great job
Healthy akara ? And fluffy texture?
I will try this
You're a life saver to us going on a healthier eating journey
Thank you Winnie
@@cherylcathy6675 it’s my absolute pleasure Dear!❤️
You never cease to amaze me, Winnie. This your receipe appears so delicious. I will definitely try it out.
I love this new innovation Winnie. My kids will definitely love this. I love innovations.
I will definitely try this! Have not had Akara in a while because of the deep frying. Thank you Winnie
You're so innovative Winnie ❤
Thank you zeelicious, I tried it and it's super amazing 😍

Our ancestors were eating all things and were living long and healthy. I will keep eating my akara the traditional way, thank you.

@@TalkwithAssumpta it’s my absolute pleasure Dear!❤️❤️ And I never even saw it from a cost perspective.. thanks for bringing that insight.🥰❤️
I can't agree less. The cost of vegetable oil is so,so expensive. Thanks Winnie I will be trying this soonest when I'm settled.

Mama you are good at what you dose ❤
How about the cost of those vegetables?
Thanks, this is definitely healthier.
It's actually very nice...less oil, more nutritious ❤
Am a big fan of akara but prefer doing it on my own and am in love with the healthy way thank you Winnie ❤
Winnie, this is even healthier than the original pancake made from white flour which is all carbohydrate. Beans is protein. Thank you for this recipe. I can eat alternative pancake now without fear of carb.
Beans is not all protein
@@eedie-mr1ey you are welcome Dear!❤️❤️

Hello winnie is a fish wrap healthy
Anty as long as it's not deeply fried it's not akara nothing can change that 😅😅😅
That is why she says akara pancakes
That's why it's akara "pancake" emphasis on pancake
😂
😂😂😂
I agree with you.
GOD ALMGHTY BLESS YOU REAL GOOD IJNA.
