- Egusi Soup - Today I'm going to
be showing you how to make Egusi soup
since I made my last egg this would be a
lot of you have been asking me to make
another one and today I'm going to show
you another method on how to make a cozy
soup so let's get started the first
thing I'm going to be doing is to blend
together my onions and peppers and today
I'm using habanero pepper Fresno pepper
and the red bell pepper now I'm going to
add some water to this pepper and I'm
going to blend it until it becomes very
smooth and I'm going to be leaving the
list of peppers I used in the
description box below however if you
don't want to use my own combination of
Pepin's feel free to use your own
combination it's all well and good
so my pepper is well blended and it's
very smooth I'll just pour it out of my
blender and I'll be setting it aside now
to blame the Aqua succeeds I'm going to
be adding some onions
the Agusan seed itself some crayfish
and a little bit of water then I'm going
to be blending it together until it
becomes a very smooth paste feel free to
add more water to the agusi during the
blending process if you feel you are
overworking your blender however try as
much as you can not to add excess water
because you don't want the Agusta to
become so watery the egusi is now well
blended and I'll just be setting it
aside as well for the next step I'm
going to be preheating a little bit of
palm oil in a pan if you've been
following my cooking you are going to
notice that I really don't like
overheating my palm oil once my oil is
melted and in little bits hot I'll just
add the onions then I'll also be
dividing my low cost bin into two and
I'll be adding half of it first
at this stage and I'm doing this so that
the flavor of the low cost pin can be
released inside the oil now fry the
onions and the low cost Ben
for a couple of minutes until the onions
become translucent if not time to add
the blended peppers
so I'll just cover this and I'll leave
its to cook and it's very important to
check on this too every now and then to
steer it and to make sure that it's not
burning now this sauce has been cooking
for about 15 minutes now it's now time
to add some more ingredients to this I'm
going to be adding some stock and today
I'm using beef stock feel free to use
chicken stock or any stock you have at
hand I'll also be adding the remaining
low cost bean and salt to taste so I'm
going to be covering this and I will
leave it to cook for about 3 minutes so
that all the ingredients I just added
will have time to mingle together ok
it's now time to add our egusi paste so
I'm going to carefully add the egusi
inside my sauce and this is because I
want the appearance of the Agusta to
look really good once it's done if you
add your egg we see carelessly inside
the sauce you might not like the results
in appearance once it's done you can
also rinse the blender inside the sauce
if you want to I'm not going to be
mixing this at this point and I'll leave
it to cook for about 10 to 15 minutes
after that I'll come back to check on it
so the algis has been cooking for 15
minutes on a medium heat and I will
check it at this point
case is looking so beautiful so I'm
going to be mixing it and as I'm mixing
it again I'm not going to be mixing it
carelessly just for the appearance you
know so I'm loving this right now and
the next thing I'm going to do is to add
my protein and today I'm going to be
using some dry fish I'm using a little
bits of cow it's a little bits of good
meat
two bits of beef and a little bits of
tripe feel free to use your combination
or meats of fish it's all well and good
cover this once again and leave it to
cook so that all this protein can mingle
with the Agassi so this has been cooking
for about five minutes and at this point
I'm going to be adding the spinach I'm
just using the regular spinach today
feel free to use any type of vegetables
you want like bitter leave what I leave
Gugu or you know all those good leaves
you can use any one of them so I'm done
adding my spinach and as you can see the
face of the Agassi is looking really
beautiful so I'll just leave these to
simmer for about three to five minutes
and that is pretty much it this is how I
make my delicious and juicy soup as you
can see it's really looking good and I
tell you it's taste just as good so
thank you all for spending your time
with me today if you like this recipe
don't forget to leave a thumbs up for me

make a very good Agassi soup feel free

I'm American and my Hubby is Nigerian I made this for first time today following your step by step process he loved it so much Thank You so much Queen ❤😘
Amazing! I came for this comment!!!! I am also American and my husband is Nigerian. I made it some time ago for my husband, which he said it was "okay", but the type of okay that is followed by a "but", lol. After getting the stew down for him he asked me to try to make the Egusi again. Here I am... 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 I feel more confident following this recipe after seeing your comment. Thank you.
I love this confirmation.. My fiancé is Nigerian as well and I can’t wait to get started trying out these authentic African recipes for him
@@anmkworldgirl I love that husband makes this best. He can keep cooking egusi and I can stick jollof rice and my own dishes :)
Just did Eguso soup for the first time for my Nigerian husband. He said it was beautiful and perfect. I want to thank you so much for your recipes. This is helping me to please my husband. Thank you so much....
I like it when she says “It’s all well and good.” 😊
Omg I loved when she said that too. I smiled 😁😄🥰
Same 😍
U re funny😂
15 seconds in and I'm immediately giving this video a like because you provide us with measurements! Thank youuuuuuuuu
P
I agree.. I love measurements. 😆. Eyeballing isn't so great sometimes...oooo
I love this recipe. I like to do 50% spinach and 50% kale and since kale is a bit tougher than spinach, it gives it a slight crunch. Which I love.
This recipe is straightforward and easy to follow for the cooking challenged such as me. I've been making delicious egusi soup for the first time in my life. I can't thank you enough.
Thank you so much!!! I'm a black American and my fiancé is West African & I want to surprise him. He made egusi soup for me & now I want to surprise him. Thanks for making that possible.
Thank from the gambia. My nigerian friends spoil me, now they are not here so i have to do it myself.
😂😂
Waaoow that is nice
Yess, thank you. My parents are never this patient teaching me. It’s hard to learn when everyone knows but are moving so fast. Thanks for taking your time to teach.

I’m an American also & always looking for different soups/stews to try. Especially different countries. I’ve watched people eating this with fufu & it just looks delicious. I ordered all the ingredients except the fresh veggies & meat that I’ll buy. Not too sure about cow feet, dry fish…
I’ve made African peanut soup w/sweet potato and that was incredible.
Thanks for sharing & I’ll def try it ❤
Woooow looks yummy

Thank you 👍
I have watched this and used the directives multiple times and yield the same thing- Yumminesssss!!!!
This recipe looks so yummy I will try this soon
I just love this reciepie ♥️
I loved the fact that you included timings in each of the cooking process. I have been hitting and missing my Egusi soup until today. It was a bullseye! Thank you so much! Subscribing right away
Waow waow it's, all I can say! I tried ur, mthd and my egusi came out perfectly! For the first time in my life, my egusi soup is, looking like, party or restaurant egusi soup and I m 43yr! Like u said it's, the gently pouring in of the egusi paste ( don't stir, allow to cook for a while and then stir gently and carefully is the trick) previously mine will become smooth and the egusi soup will not have lumps . Thanks so much again
It looks good and easy to make. I never made egusi soup before, but I will make it soon. I will try soaking the seeds a few hours before adding it into the recipe. Thanks
What West africans call soup is what we call stew in East africa.Really enjoying West african cuisine its so delicious😋
I know right? The way we use “soups” and “stews” is untypical especially in Nigeria 😀. Thanks for stopping by Sanna.

Exactly, that’s the secret! Thanks for the feedback 👍🏼
Great
I have try it very nice
Nice
I tried egusi soup with goat meat very recently at a local African restaurant and I was amazed. And here I am, lucky enough to find this fantastic youtube channel for African recipes. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! Your egusi soup looks fabulous! (I hope you don't mind me asking, but how did you prepare the protein you added to your egusi soup? Did you braise them, deep fry them, or just poach them?)
Yummy
This is what I like. It's our method of making egusi in delta state. I love it Thanks
Thanks Gloria. I served in Delta state 🙌🏾
Wow that. the way that I will do my own to blended the Eugsi with small water on it. It will very smooth. Wow that the way exactly I am fixing my own with palm oil.I will use cow feet, chicken,fee,and cow skin. with koter thick fish on my Egusi soup. Then I will put small spinach inside of it ooh boy. it was really delicious and very delicious everybody complement me for that even some of my spanish friends requested for some from me I had directed to come and learn from You Tub channels so they will do it the way they will want it to be. I will take them to the African market and show them all the ingredients that are necessary to buy so they will fix their it their own .My dear your own is correct when I say perfectly correct it looks so good I feel like going there and eats it.The Nigerians can do it so perfect just like you thanks so much may God bless you ma.
Let me taste now😋😋😋
Wow 😮 this is nice, it will go for eba
Purrfect 👌
Thanks :)
Wow i love this
