Recipe: Appetizing Yamarita Delicious, fresh and tasty.

Yamarita. Yamarita is loved by everyone in Nigeria, except you haven't yet tried it. Then this page is for you. Yamarita is plain boiled yam that is coated in egg, flour, ginger, garlic, and salt.

Most people serve yamarita with special dips or stews.

Unlike the regular fried yam, yamarita is a fried yam coated with egg-flour which makes it crunchy and sweeter.

Yamarita,also known as Dun Dun Oniyeri, is simply thinly sliced Par-boiled/blanched yams dipped into whisked egg+flour& fried until crispy.
