Ways You Can Make Efo Elegusi With Recipes.
Efo elegusi simply means Egusi made with a higher quantity of green vegetables like spinach, ugu, kale etc. The blog is well populated with Egusi Soup of different styles but today’s version is one of the ways the Yoruba tribe of Western Nigeria cook their Egusi soup.

Ingredients:
Assorted Meats (Beef, Ponmo, Goat meat, Cow leg, Shaki and other offals are ideal)

1.5 Cups Whole Egusi/ 1 Cup Ground Egusi

1/2 Cup Palm Oil

1-2 Cups Chicken/ Meat Stock

3 Red Bell Pepper (Tatashe)

2 Medium Onions

2 Scotch Bonnet (Atarodo)

1 Cup Chopped Ugu leaves

1/2 cup Efinrin/ Basil leaves

3 Heaped Tablespoons Ground Crayfish

1/4 Cup Smoked Prawns (optional)

1 Medium Size Smoked Fish / Stockfish

1/2 Cup Raw/ Cooked King Prawns (Optional)

1 Maggi Crayfish or any Bouillon cube of your choice

I prefer to eat other people’s food than mine, I think there’s a spirit behind cooking and if you don’t have it then your food will never be sweet no matter how you try

This looks good!

I grew up eating Yoruba food. This their oily egusi soup is to die for. Funnily enough, you hardly get this type around these days.
Chai, I miss iya alama those days in Ikoyi. This was the kind of egusi soup she sold then.

Amala gbigbona tongue.
