Lovely appearance of that soup... Hopefully it tastes exactly as great.

Personally, I prefer and love my Egusi thick with balls... Stew looking Egusi just pisses me off.

I'm yet to eat egusi with scent leaves. I'll try it this weekend. Nice one Glory. Keep doing the Lord's work.


Mariahangel, abeg bring fufu come. Food don ready.

With scent leaves, it gives it that extra and unique salivating taste.
Be sure to add just a little of the leaves.


Have you tried it with uziza leaves too??

ariesbull:
this is an Igbo soup call it properly it is Egwusi and Nchuanwu


other tribes copies it from igbo ,just like oha and Nsala

ogbono is also a pure igbo soup derived from igbo words ogbo Onu.. meaning the area that draws or slimy

Mariahangel here is the soup

I don faint ,.

My best soup

Looks really good. I reckon it'll taste even better.

I guess the scent leaves has to be added in small quantity because it has such a strong aroma that it might put people off.

I'll try this but without the scent leaves. My major problem is usually gathering all the ingredients - just hate the markets nowadays.

Beef
Shaki (tripe)
Shombo
Red and yellow scent peppers
Stock fish
Dryfish
Crayfish
Okpei (locust bean)
Palm oil
Onions
Scent leaves
Ugu leaves (pumpkin leaves)

STEPS:

Season the meat and the stock fish with onion, seasoning cubes and a little salt. I used the soft stock fish so I added mine much later.
When it boils, add water and cook till tender.
Prep your other ingredients, it makes cooking easier.
Blend or pound the shombo, peppers, crayfish, okpei with little or no water.
Blend onions with water and pour in the blended Egusi to form a paste.
Add palm oil in a dry pot, add in the blended pepper mix. Fry till dry.
Add the Egusi paste in small portions, stir fry between 8 to 15 minutes.
Stir continuously if not the Egusi will burn.
Add in the meat stock, add gently so the soup doesn't get watery.
Add in the meat, cover the pot and cook for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to avoid burning.
Add the dry fish and cook for extra 2 minutes.
Add your preferred vegetables. I used scent leaves and ugu leaves, scent leaves is very nice for Egusi soup.
Stir for a minute and your soup is ready.

Thank you Glory.
I'll give it a try. Bachelors life no easy

Nice ,

I just want you to know I’m your biggest fan here. All of your recipe I tried was a banger back to back.
Keep doing what you do.

Have you tried it with uziza leaves too??

I do use uziza leaves and seeds frequently. The taste is glorious.

Egusi soup with anything other than bitter leaf is just a “soup”. Egusi soup is great only when there’s bitter leaf in it

Tokskob2008:
The attention of the EFCC needs to be alerted to this our Nairaland chef cos the way she cooks all this delicious delicacies is something else.. Just take a look at the list of ingredients and tell me why we shouldn't involve EFCC

As in the attention of Interpol too
For this economy ���

this is an Igbo soup call it properly it is Egwusi and Nchuanwu


other tribes copies it from igbo ,just like oha and Nsala

ogbono is also a pure igbo soup derived from igbo words ogbo Onu.. meaning the area that draws or slimy

A1 in Igbo language. No doubts...

Nice one, dear. Nchuanwu is a welcome addition to anything.

Kollins11:
I'm even perceiving the aroma through my phone. I just dey lick my phone screen na mumu. I swear you sabi cook.

Abeg give me egusi make I chop, then after eating, I will still eat the other egusi in between your legs.

(As far as I know) she’s a married woman, you silly little boy. How dare you. How bloody dare you.

Get your tapped self out of here and go flirt with someone who’s actually on your jobless level.

YoungDaNaval:
Ofe egusi with scent leaf? Ewwww! Can't imagine

I’ve actually often thought about it but seeing this recipe more-or-less confirms that it would hit right. I don’t think many people realise exactly how beneficial Igbo nchuanwu (effirin to the Yoruba, not that Yoruba people generally seem to know what to do with most greens) is. It’s a game-changer for so many foods. When my mum introduced me to it (a long time ago) I knew it was a vegetable that would probably increase my lifespan.

Igbo have given Nigeria many foods

j
okwuru they non igbo call it okro ...but the real igbo name is okwuru (meaning to stand )okro tree is tall and stands that's why Igbo call it Okwuru but non igbo copied it and name it okro


ugu is another igbo vegetable


without igbo many tribes like yoruba and ebira will be eating trash

You just deluded. It is better you stop talking trash on this beautiful thread.
