🍲 Efo Elegusi Soup

Description

Efo Elegusi is a Niger-Delta favorite made from palm fruit extract simmered with spices, assorted meats or fish, and local seasonings to produce a rich, aromatic broth. Our recipe brings out the deep, savory palm-fruit notes and a full-bodied mouthfeel that pairs beautifully with starchy sides.

Best served with starch, fufu, or white rice, Banga is hearty and festive—great for special meals or family gatherings. Freshly cooked and delivered hot anywhere in Lagos and Abuja.

🍅 Key Ingredients in Efo Elegusi Soup

The magic of Efo Elegusi lies in its well-balanced mix of ingredients that complement each other beautifully. Common ingredients include:

• Ground Egusi (melon seeds) – the creamy, protein-rich base.
• Efo (vegetables) such as spinach, ugu (pumpkin leaves), or waterleaf for freshness.
• Palm oil – adds that authentic, rich Nigerian flavor.
• Blended pepper mix (tomatoes, bell peppers, scotch bonnet) for heat and depth.
• Assorted meats and fish – beef, goat meat, ponmo, stockfish, or dry fish for protein and flavor variety.
• Seasoning cubes, crayfish, and salt – to tie all the flavors together.

The result? A thick, aromatic soup bursting with flavor — nutty, spicy, and earthy all at once.
