Cooking Steps for multi-purpose egusi soup
First, I boil my chicken, stock fish and dry fish together, well spiced cos it’s meat stock I use for the soup.
Then, I heat my oil on fire.
poured in my onions and green pepper,allow it fry till it looks like
it’s burning then I pour in my egusi,
I stir till the whole egusi is mixed with the oil then I add my parboiled tomato paste (keep stirring if not it will burn).
Next, I add my part of meat, stock-fish and fish with d stock.
I taste and add all other ingredients left. Crayfish, benny chicken and 2 cubes of chicken seasoning.
Stir all the way to the bottom and leave to cook till the top is covered in oil then you can add your vegetable at the last minute as usual.
This is after I added my meat stock with all the orishirishi in it. Multi-purpose egusi soup served with fufu and a bottle of watermelon juice Enjoy your yummy multi-purpose egusi soup! |
Nice one Ella… But 1 question!
Can I eat bread with it?
Hi, I live the look of your pepper. Can you please give me your pepper combination? eg 2 tomatoes 1 tatashe and 1 small sized onion? Thanks. I hear pepper combo determines the real taste 🙂
Did you say green pepper? Never tried that…will check it out. I like the tomato combo tho

You need glasses? She said anything, even bitter cola
looks nice. will defo try the green pepper thingy.
I don't know u could add green pepper to soup. Nice one!
Nice, esp d green pepper part. For the safety of ur pot dear, wooden spoons are the best.

Na question e ask,no need to be sarcastic. How would u feel if someone answered u dat way?
hmmmnnn, this soup sha..chicken and green pepper!!! how did u do ur tomato paste,dd u use vegetable oil in dat…cos i feel like with the palm oil that will be too much oil going on there.
Silly Debby!
Nice one Ella. I learnt from an aunt that yellow, green n red peppers can be used in vegetable or egusi soup however I've always blended them up when I use them for soups and I've never been disappointed.
Eyaaaa is that how you perceived it, coz I no put "lol" for end? E pele o am sure Ace understood better. Ndo o? Ace I know no say you get fans like this o,hmmm
Bookmarked,but will eat this one with faith.

I think I am more interested in the watermelon juice, how did you make it pls?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha,I don die 4 laff ooooo,Ace n Debbie u guys r sick. Bt seriously,u can eat it wit bread trust me cos its lyk stew bt I dnt knw abt d bitter kola oooo,mayb wen Debbie tries it she'l let us knw.
I used 2 plates of tomato(u knw hw dey sell in plates),one plate of tatashe n 1 plate of yellow pepper,dats all.
Yes green pepper. Tnx
Pls do n let us knw if u like it. One tip: dnt put all @ d same tym,share it in2 two places,put d 1st part wen u r fryin(if u r frying) den pour d oda part wen d food is ready jst b4 u turn off d gas. D aroma n taste is nyc.
Yhh I use wooden spoons 2 cook bt dis particular soup was rily much n my wooden spoon was rily short,so I had 2 use smth else,besides dat spoon is ceramic,I dnt tink it spoils pots lyk metal spoons. N yes I rily love soups cos I love real food,I'm nt a junk person.
No,I dint use veg.oil @ all,jst palm oil. 4 d tomato paste,I blended my tomato,yellow pepper n tatashe 2geda n boiled till dry.
Blended watermelon wit d seeds(watermelon seeds r medicinal) bt nt d back,sieved 3-4tyms wit a tiny-holed sieve till dere were no particles anymore. Den refigerate.
I chew my watermelon with the seeds and taught my kids to eat that way too. Those seeds are crunchy and taste good.
