I’ve come to a realization that as the days go by, technology keeps improving and making life better for lazy people like me. Gone are the days when i’d spend over two hours washing beans with my bare hands in the kitchen (Say wetin happen??!!). At a point, i even dreaded days when i compulsorily had to make meals like Moi moi Or akara for the fam. It got so bad that i resorted to buying these meals from vendors outside whenever i craved for them to avoid the stress involved in the Preparation.
This method would definitely come as a relief to most people who find the traditional method of washing beans tasking. I’ve also got the full video on the process below.
Directions:::
Step 1: Separate the beans from the Chaff
Step 2: Put the unwashed beans into a blender, Add water & pulse the blender for about 3-5 minutes. This doesn’t break the beans but removes the skin.
Step 3: Sieve the brown skin out with clean water leaving the white part of the beans. You can now grind the beans for the preparation of Akara or Moi Moi

Good Job, where did you get the blender from?

Wow. Wonderful. But worried it might spoil the blades of the regular blender since the seeds aren't yet soft? Wonderful blog, tho. Wish I discovered it earlier. I have a whole whole lot to learn…for surprise meals for my wifey! 😉
i've tried this severally with the regular blender and it turned out fine without spoiling the blades but it all depends on how strong the blender is. Glad you found the blog useful Llsyn :).

Great work from you chris
Please what is the name of this your blender because it is not the normal tomato and pepper kind of blender
Thanks chris.

Ok, Moi moi and Akara now easy to do for me.
Debby, do you have any idea what to do with insect eaten beans? I have like a 4 litter jerry can of beans that has been eaten by ants (kokoro). I made moi moi with some, tasted okay but my prince had to go to the loo immediately after eating it and same with a colleague. I no wan throw way the beans – advise ooo.
Thanks.
I'm afraid there's nothing you can do about insect infested beans joladunni. Even if you grind it, it'd still feel grainy like something that has sand in it.
