• Shakara Yamarita

    Shakara Yamarita was as a result of serious cravings I had for yam, egg and smoked beef. I decided to indulge myself for breakfast yesterday before work. I know, I know, who makes such decadent breakfast before work? Well in my defense, I had chopped all the vegetables and smoked beef the night before. The yam was soaking in slightly salted water in the fridge till the next morning. This helped make the process the next day so much easier.

    This shakara yamarita recipe is not that different from any other yamarita recipe but it is best served with a tomato based sauce or ketchup with a tinge of spice for heat. It is also a more decadent version than you are probably used to. You can also add more ingredients to it but ensure you chop it into little pieces. Some people bake their yamarita, I was in a hurry so I pan fried mine but you can also bake it.
