Yamarita — Nigerian snack recipe

Yamarita is a beloved Nigerian street food and party favourite: tender yam slices that are first parboiled, then dredged in spiced flour, dipped in egg and deep-fried until golden and crunchy. The combination of paprika and ginger in the coating gives every bite a warm, savoury kick. Serve with a peppery tomato sauce or any dipping sauce of your choice.
