You need a binder...either achi or offor

Next time, when you're grinding your egusi in the market, tell the seller to add achi or offor...about #50 worth will do or even less depending on the quantity of your egusi.

Don't mind those typing nonsense... Next time, if you have any questions about your cooking, you can ask on the cook and post thread.

there are different steps but i wanna guide you on egusi proper.....

step 1...pour red oil on ur pot put it on fire but make sure ders no water present in d pot

step 2...add a little salt to get the nyawn sound to know that the oil is hot, add ur sliced onions,a little quantity of crayfish to get that fried scent..wait for 1minuit and later add your melon after being socked with water so as to get rid of the melon smell by frying it....wait for like 2 _3min

step 3 ..add ur cooked ingredient[fish, meat,stockfish. snail,crayfish,perper,maggi(royco goat flavour)salt]with its water and allow it to steam....from here the aroma is a goal

Step 4...add another sliced onions to make it fresh because of the melon...onions is always nice in it...taste it if the maggi n salt u used in the cooked ingredient was sufficient but if not add another cube to make it suit ur taste

ADD UR Vegetable LEAF N LEAVE IT FOR 2MIN DEN DROP it ....ur melon vegetable is ready....NOTE DT D VEGETABLE MUST B FRESH

Actually the soup can serve two purpose, to manage succulent swallow and as pepper soup but the only problem is just the lack of meat, you can just walk down your street and get some lizard killed for better substitute of onions..... Your life will never remain the same aftermath grin angry grin

Use less water. In fact, use only the meat water.

Secondly, when you fry your red oil for like a minute and add your Egusi to the pot on fire containing the red oil, stir the mixture for at least 15 seconds before adding meat water. Keep stirring, and adding meat water till you get the desired paste. Never leave the kitchen. Close the pot to allow boiling, open every 2 minutes and add extra meat water to get the texture you want. Egusi easily burns from the bottom of the pot when cooking is not supervised properly.

Finally, you can add some pinch of Achi. It's a soup powder. We call it Achi in Igbo. Ask for it in the market where you bought your grounded Egusi.

Enjoy.

IPOB spoted, why re igbo people too lazy to cook? so is it achi or ofor that will make the soup not watery? pls go and learn how to cook without adding the so called achi and ofor. a good cook don't add such.

I'm frustrated. This is the third time that I'm facing this issue. I don't know what I did to my village people. �

Why is it that anytime I cook Egwusi soup, the soup will divide itself into two? The egwusi/vegetables/ingredients will go one side and the water will go the other side. Out of frustrations, I have finished the meat and I'm about to get rid of the soup now. I don't know what else to do. I'm frustrated.

Please, my people, I need your help urgently. How can I make a good Egwusi soup that the ingredients doesn't quarrel with the water? If you have the step-by-step guide on how to make a good Egwusi soup, please send it to me because that's my favourite soup. Make me, *Frank Umeadi* happy, please.

Note: This does not mean that I'm not a good husband material o. I'm just preparing myself and I believe that no time is late.

Thank you so much as I await your positive response.

Soup thickner in egusi? Isn't egusi already meant to be a thickner on its own? When the method used right from the start is wrong then the result would be wrong.

You fall my hand especially since I believe you are female. Chai.
