Description
Papa's Choice Original Poundo Iyan 4kg is an instant pounded yam flour that delivers the smooth, white, stretchy swallow known as Iyan — a beloved staple of Nigerian and Yoruba cooking, without the hours of traditional pounding. It pairs beautifully with egusi soup, efo riro, okra, ogbono, bitter leaf soup and stewed assorted meat. This 4kg pack suits larger households and regular cooking.
How to prepare
- Bring 2 cups of water to a rolling boil per 1 cup of poundo yam flour.

- Serve hot alongside your preferred Nigerian soup, shaped into individual portion balls.
