Ingredients that Make Efo Riro Special

The beauty of Nigerian Efo Riro soup lies in its carefully balanced ingredients. Traditionally, it is made with:

• Fresh green vegetables (commonly spinach or ugu leaves)
• Palm oil for a rich, authentic base
• Assorted meats like goat meat, beef, or cow tripe (shaki)
• Stockfish and dried fish for that smoky depth of flavor
• Seasoning cubes, crayfish, and spices to elevate the taste
• Fresh blended tomatoes, peppers, and onions for a flavorful stew base

When cooked right, these ingredients come together to create a soup that is both nourishing and satisfying. It pairs perfectly with swallows like pounded yam, eba, fufu, or even rice, making it versatile for any Nigerian dining table.
