Efo Riro Soup

Description

Efo Riro is a popular Yoruba-style vegetable soup from Nigeria, known for its bold flavors and rich, colorful appearance. It’s made with sautéed spinach or fluted pumpkin leaves, simmered in a well-seasoned blend of peppers, onions, tomatoes, and palm oil. Cooked with assorted meats, smoked fish, and sometimes ponmo (cow skin), Efo Riro is a deeply satisfying dish that pairs perfectly with rice, amala, eba, or pounded yam. Every spoonful is a burst of traditional taste and cultural pride!
