It’s also easy to make. If you love yam, it’s a must-try recipe!
This yam porridge recipe tastes just like my mom’s. The only difference is that it uses basil which is not typical in my mom’s recipe. However, you can choose to add any herb or any leafy green of your choice like spinach, kale, or ugwu.
Asaro is made from Puna Yam which is boiled till it’s tender and it’s cooked in a blend of Peppers, Tomatoes, onions, palm oil, and seasoning. While the dish is more common in the Yoruba-speaking region of Nigeria, it is still a meal enjoyed by the majority alike each with their own regional variation.
Fried Yam With Pepper Sauce (dundun)
There are no rules. If you prefer sugar, you can add it, especially when making this recipe with the new yam. The new yam has not yet developed the natural sweetness that comes with the older yam. However, I recommend that you shouldn’t add sugar to older yams because they are sweet enough. Sugar will alter the natural taste of the porridge.
Mash your yam porridge with a wooden spoon or potato masher. How much you mash depends on your preference. I like to leave some yam chunks in my yam porridge, so I mash about 50%.
Although vegetable oil can be an alternative to palm oil, it doesn’t fit the recipe perfectly. The best option is to use palm oil because it brings out the flavor of the recipe and it adds color to the porridge.
