MORNING SHENANIGANS WITH US!
morning face
Hey guys
What did you have for breakfast?
Well today I woke up craving Akara and bread. By the way what do you call Ankara in your language?. I grew up knowing it as Akara and not until when I was almost a full adult I started hearing its name English name is Bean buns?. Even after knowing the name I can’t see myself calling it that. It will always and forever remain Akara to me.
Well this morning I woke up craving it. As an African woman and over zealous wife that I wanted to be, I opted to make some home made ones. It was until my partner laughed at me and asked me if “to do work is hungering me’ before i realized the work that was involved in it also couple with the fact that I did not have any bean flour left in the house, I would have to soak, peel and wash the beans and then blend it. As soon as he laughed at me, my sense returned and we got dressed and drove to the nearest Akara seller.
So typical this is how every Akara sellers shade is set up in my country. You hardly see them indoor because this setup just has its own vibe Abeq,
If you get what I mean
The table is usually always listed with some other food items that can be eaten with the Akara, items like pap aka Akamu the partner to Akara Lol,
Agidi-(please what do you call agidi in your language?,I also know it as Eko). Some portable sized bread, these type are always so soft and very fitting for the hot Akara.
This table also had some fried potatoes too
This particular Akara stand had two set of Akara on the fire, the big size ad the small size. Some persons actually like the big size but me I prefer the small sizes because it’s just the perfect size for my mouth.
I bought $1/#500 worth of Akara for myself and my husband as well as two soft small bread. We didn’t even wait till we got home before we launched it. We started eating it right from the car. In my experience Akara is best and sweeter when it is eaten hot. Waiting till we get home could give it enough time to get cold and we couldn’t have that.
It was a yummy breakfast eaten in the confines of our car. On this note, good morning to everyone and have a lovely rest of your day.
Been a long time I had this, when I was in school, this was our easy go to for breakfast
Very easy food
And satisfying too

Bread with Akara, yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I recall being addicted to this combo while I was in high school, and I once arrived late to school due to this treat. I don't really fancy it again, perhaps because of the beans; I'm not a fan of beans....
Hahahaha I think as one grow up
Certain things begin to become uninteresting, I definitely think taste bud changes
Unfortunately, I didn't have breakfast today, so I'm not having a good day and it's the first time I've seen the akara you mentioned.
Awwwwn why?
Breakfast is always good
Good makes one happy too
Try and eat something o
Glad I showed you something new
Thank you for stopping by
I'm fasting today so I didn't have breakfast. yes breakfast is always good.
I wish you will just put the one you're holding inside my mouth. You just made me so start craving this😕
Hahahahaha this is your que to buy some hot steamy akara tomorrow morning
This made me remember our akara seller while I was in high school. It was fun then, queuing at the woman’s joint to have a taste of it.😂 Omoor... the combination of bread and akara sweet die, especially when the bread is so soft and the akara is soft.
Thanks for bringing this 😋to our view @reineesmay
Hahahahaah awwwn

Akaraaaaaa😍😍
I can't remember the last time I had it, now I'm craving. Plus, how's your morning face that fresh?
Hehehehe tomorrow morning go and buy some babygirl

I ate this almost everyday during my final year in school. Now that you have shown me again, na to dy look for akara spot but it's scarce over here. ☹️☹️
I think this combo was everyone’s school favorite
Yeah, its just one of the fastest food out there.
Akara and pap is my best combo for breakfast. I love processing the Akamu myself while I buy already made akara atimes.
One very delicious combo too
🙌🙌
I enjoy eating this food back then in school
It is always easy to get
But it been a while I tasted it seeing this post now makes me want to have a taste...lol
Bread and akara is one sweet combo.
It’s like this combo is Nigerian student starter pack
Lol
Lol..yes it is oo
Omo I can't even see myself calling it Bean buns when I know I can pronounce the Akara very well 😂😂
I love my Akara mostly with custard with enough milk in it🤤🤤
You like enjoyment
Enough milk 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
I am just looking at the akara and bread and your sun-kissed face.
Heheheheeh
Where have you been
My dear I made one silly mistake. I can barely comment on posts. I have limited power here. It will be for a while.
Ohhh really
Let’s talk on WhatsApp
What happened
The akara looks nice to people really enjoyed yourselves with mouth watering delicacies this morning
Yes o
🌹🌹
My mum doesn't mind that whole peel the beans process and I sometimes wonder if I'll ever learn how to get it done with half her speed and efficiency😂. Thank God for beans flour🤲🏾😂.
Akara couldn't taste better with bread than with that sandwich formation you have there😂.
Please jare
Beans flour all the way
Nobody has time for stress again
Although I know how to do the peel the beans process...was brought up my an Esan woman ..you must learn everything lol
But I am currently team anything that doesn’t stress me
I'm totally for the no stress policy😂
I feel you please!😂 Personally, I eat akara and bread or pap every Saturday morning (that’s just like my staple Saturday food). Here is a tip; you can buy akara beans in the market and grind it to flour and store it in an air tight container so you can prepare akara whenever you want. Plus it’s cheaper and more economical than the beans flour at the supermarket.
