Nigerian Egusi Soup

Ingredients:

  • For the falafel:
  • 2 cups Egusi (ground melon seeds)
  • 1 kg assorted meat (beef, goat meat, tripe, cow leg, etc.)
  • 1 cup palm oil
  • 2 onions, diced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp ground crayfish
  • 2-3 scotch bonnet peppers, chopped
  • 2 tbsp dried fish powder
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp bouillon powder
  • 1 bunch spinach or bitter leaf, washed and chopped
  • Water

Instructions:

  1. Rinse the assorted meat and put it in a pot. Add water to cover and 1 diced onion, salt, and bouillon powder. Cook for about 30 minutes or until the meat is tender.
  2. While the meat is cooking, heat the palm oil in a separate pot over medium heat. Add the remaining diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onions are translucent.
  3. Add the ground Egusi to the pot and stir constantly for about 5 minutes. This will help to toast the Egusi and prevent it from clumping together.
  4. Gradually add water to the Egusi while stirring until you have a smooth paste. Reduce the heat to low and let the Egusi cook for about 20 minutes.
  5. Add the ground crayfish, dried fish powder, chopped scotch bonnet peppers, and salt to the Egusi and stir well.
  6. Add the cooked meat and some of the meat stock to the Egusi and stir. Let the soup simmer for about 10-15 minutes.
  7. Finally, add the chopped spinach or bitter leaf to the soup and stir. Let it cook for about 5 more minutes.

Your Nigerian Egusi Soup is ready! Serve with some fufu, rice, or any other preferred side dish. Enjoy!
