Nigerian Bean Cakes. This is a recipe from my husband's step mum who lived in Nigeria for 15 years. Cooking time does not include soaking. The koose will expand a little during frying. Start with small scoops and adjust if necessary. The batter will be thin. Ingredients:
1/2 lb black-eyed peas (beans) |
2 chili peppers, chopped |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 eggs |
4 ounces water |
oil (for deep frying) |
Directions:
1. Soak beans for 24 hours in cold water.
2. Rinse the beans or skin them by rubbing between your hands while rinsing under running water.
3. Blend all ingredients in a food processor.
4. Pour mixture into a bowl and hand whisk for 2-3 minutes to aerate.
5. Heat oil in a pan and carefully drop small balls of the mixture into the oil from a spoon.
6. Fry until golden brown.
7. Drain on paper towel.
8. Serve hot or cold with chili sauce.
