From Wikipedia

Akara (Yoruba: àkàrà; ) is a type of fritter made from cowpeas or beans (black-eyed peas) that originated in Yorubaland, from the Yoruba ethnic group inhabiting parts of Nigeria, Benin and Togo. It is sometimes referred to as "bean cake" in English. It is found throughout West African, Caribbean, and Brazilian cuisines. Akara is the ancestor of Acarajé, traditionally found in Brazil's northeastern state of Bahia, especially in the city of Salvador. The dish was brought to Brazil by enslaved Yoruba citizens from West Africa, and can still be found in various forms in Nigeria, Benin and Togo.
