Efo Elegusi

Efo Elegusi is a classic Nigerian soup that combines the earthy flavors of ground melon seeds (egusi) with tender spinach, tomatoes, onions, and a variety of spices. The melty, nutty texture of the egusi pairs perfectly with the leafy spinach, creating a satisfying and flavorful stew. Often enriched with meat, fish, or both, Efo Elegusi is a hearty dish that packs a punch of flavor in every bite. Typically served with pounded yam, fufu, or rice, Efo Elegusi is a delicious, comforting meal that is both nutritious and full of rich, satisfying flavors.
