Simple and Important Note Before Preparing Beans Cake/Akara
1. Remove the beans coat. I think that is not big deal you can visit the page on [How To Remove Beans Coat For Help]. It is much more OK to remove your beans coat. Please note:.. Make sure you do not let salt come to have or make contact with the beans you want to make use of not until you are ready to fry it. This can fordo the leavening property of the beans.
2. After removing the coat of the beans, soak the beans in warm water for 2 hours to make it rise and soft to make your blender to be able to blend it. But If you are grinding it with the heavy duty grinders in the markets, it will not be necessary to soak the beans in warm water or for extended periods of time you can just soak for 1 hour 45 minutes.
3. Make sure that the beans you are using is freshly peeled beans, which means you can't use coatless beans that has been already stored in the fridge or freezer to make Akara.
4. When grinding the beans, make sure you use very small quantity of water.
5. Make sure you have sure of the Smoothness of the beans before frying that why you should mix with mortar and pestle.
6. Don't add salt immediately after the grinding, make sure it is when you are about scooping it i.e just before frying.
Preparation Of The Beans Cake/Akara
1. When the beans is probably socked, prepare it for grinding, to do that pour out the water from the bean add the peppers and onions as shown below.
2. Pour the beans in to your blender to grind it, making sure the water you will add to it while blending is not much if possible, you may blend it without water and when you are done with the blending use little water to clean up the blender and add to your grinded beans. That is why it is good to use the heavy duty grinders in markets that do grind the beans without water less than the water use to clean it. All this is to help you have a good and batter stay together ball roll of beans cake during frying and it will also help to reducing spatter.

3. Set up your stove or cooker, place your frying pan and pour your vegetable oil in it to heat up.
Note:... The depth of the oil should be at least 3 inches so if ½ liter is not enough, it depends on the size of your pan so please add more oil.
4. Pour into a mortar the grounded beans, add chopped onion and start stirring the beans puree with the pestle in a continuous circular motion the way you did to your cake when mixing sugar and butter. stir till the ground beans appears whiter and you can perceive its peculiar aroma.
5. Put some onion into the oil to check maybe the oil has hot enough to sizzling, but not too much hot like that. If too hot, the Bean Cake/Akara ball will spattered as soon as the beans batter hits the oil and your Bean Cake/Akara will not be probably done inside.
6. Now add little water to the beans puree in the mortar and little vegetable oil to it. Stir well.
7. Add salt (to your best taste) and stir again. Don't forget that salt should be added just before scooping the beans
mixture into the hot oil. If salt stays in the mixture for so long periods of time, it will ruins the leavening property of the beans. This property is what makes the Bean Cake/Akara ball to float in the oil and prevent spatter during frying.
