I really need a good cook to explain how beans soup can be prepared, the Yoruba's call it gbegiri soup, and there is this cute Yoruba guy I am trying to impress by preparing this soup for him, any help pls?

There should be a recipe here somewhere if you do a search

Wash your beans to remove the shaft.
Put it on fire and add little kaun( i've forgotten the english name oo)
Add enough water( not too much oo) just the quantity you know will be enough for the beans)
Cook till the beans is very soft( though it doesn't take too long.)
After cooking, bring down from fire. Using your sifter(ase) don't know if the english name is correct, sifter the beans and continuously use your spoon to press the beans so that you don't really waste it when throwing away the remnant.
When you are done siftering, put your pot on fire, add red oil.
You would have blended your pepper and onion. When the oil is hot, add your blended pepper.
Allow to fry well. If you know you are adding things like dry fish, pomo or crayfish, u add them.
If you like locust beans, u can also add it.
Add your maggi and salt.
When you know the pepper is well fried, pour in your sifted beans. Leave on fire for like five to ten minute.
Your soup is ready.

Thank u very much, but it sounds more like when u are cooking the normal beans, is there no vegetable required?

The way I prepare my gbegiri a.k.a beans soup;
Wash the skin off the beans,then cook for bout 30mins or less,the beans shud be soft by then,add crayfishor titus fish and iru(locust beans),then pour into blender(let it cool off o)blend to a smoothpaste,put back on fire ,add palmoil,salt and maggi,and ure good to go.

Thanks for sharing but I don't really like beans soup.
