** oven grill chicken with ingredients above for 12 minutes with broil option **
* 1 large onion chopped

Let us know how it goes

I dated a Nigerian man and he introduced me to African cuisine and I haven’t looked back! Egusi potato greens fufu and grilled dibi is my favorite
My mom boyfriend Nigerian and I just got introduced and I love all of their food!!
Sameeee !!
Yep! The spices and flavours are divine....could never go back to basic or bland foods
ooh that amazing 👏😍
The chili’s I tried it it’s smelling bad that yellow one 😠😠
I’ve never had African food before but I just made this for my family last night following your recipe/tutorial and it was a big hit! Delicious!
Wonderful!
@@NanaabasKitchenCan you make FuFu from Bisquick?
@@marshatate5443no please dont
@@marshatate5443what is the bisquick
@@marshatate5443 please dont
i’m from kazakhstan so this cuisine is so alien to me but it got recommended to me for some reason and now i want to try and cook this:) +this woman’s smile and personality are contagious i was invested and smiled throughout the whole thing❤️
Thank you 🙏🏽❤️
Same here she seems to have such a kind spirit love the sound of her voice, so soothing and a great cook also.
I have had Nigerian food before but, it’s been a long time and, I never stopped wanting it. This lovely lady has inspired me to try making myself.
Her voice is sooo soothing while describing everything 😌
Omg I’m pregnant it’s 2am and I’m contemplating making this rn. If only I had the ingredients 😂😍😍😍 looks delicious. I’m Mexican and love to try new foods , this is my next meal for my husband for sure! ❤️❤️🤞🏽
Hahaha
Me right now
I am pregnant and Mexican and contemplating making this now also 🤣
@@gabriellatrevino1277 good luck
THE RESULTS WERE AMAZING THANK YOU FOR THIS TUTORIAL!! I made it for my family tonight I hope everybody appreciate the FULL BODY workout it took to make the fufu 😂💕💕
i agree...thanks
Even as a Nigerian, fufu is hard for me…lol
I make semolina with potato starch(very little) to make fufu. I am from Congo, we don't eat this kind of fufu.
future. will soak that dry fish first.
Love your clarity and it is so accessible. My Honduran family use a Hana to pound cooked green plantain but… now I have a peek to see where and how the tradition comes from.
I really appreciate the way you explained your recipe and told us the exact measurements without skipping anything! (I was shopping online for the ingredients as you were explaining them) I have been missing African food and couldn’t find a good enough recipe until I found you on google. Again I appreciate how you do your videos. You have gained yourself a new subscriber 😊
Thank you 🙏🏽🥰
Plenty of African places I could get it from but I truly think African food is booming, it's so rich and diverse with a variety of spices and uses for them! I'm honestly completely intrigued and addicted, I was born and raised in France 😂 but I want to learn how to use all these beautiful ingredients
I drove 45 minutes today to try it for the first time. Lately people have been posting videos of themselves trying it and spitting it out and being very disrespectful to the culture but I thought it looked really good so I got some and loved it. Now just a few hours later I’m looking at how to make it because I need more!!!❤️❤️❤️
Yes I be watching them irritated because when I see it I’m like 🤤🤤🤤
What rude, tasteless fools! This looks so delicious! I must try to make it ASAP.
The problem with ppl is that they expect food to taste the same as it tastes in their cultures. Many times it is not so and a lot of the taste of foods is acquired. It is very disrespectful to video yourself spitting out other ppl's food. They are not fools they are plain uncultured, and undisciplined and with no values or good upbringing.

..im British Irish & I would still find that so,so rude..manners don't cost a penny!..
My mother loves egusi but our closest restaurant is 2 hours away lol. This was so beautifully done and easy to follow, thank you 🥰 she literally brings the ingredients to me every Thursday now 😭😂
That’s so cute 🤣😍
I'll bee right there lolz y'all got a brilliant mom!
@@7thgenerationvolva1996 I do 🥰
Anna pls there is a defferent between egusi stew n Ghanaian egusi soup
@@feleciaadjei1946 if you don’t mind telling me the difference, I’d love to know 😊
I am entirely obsessed with world cultures. And you make me feel so loved I just love African culture.
I love the focus on no waste. I always rinse my sauce jar/can and then pour it into whatever I'm making. But you never see that on youtube or recommended by cheifs. I love to see it encouraged, because it makes sense and it's what people actually do. Loved this video and the intro to African cuisine!
I’ve recently discovered that I’m part Nigerian so this video means everything to me. I also specialize in culinary and tried this once before at a restaurant but now I will attempt to make this at home. Thank you so much ❤
I made you egusi soup version and it was divine, everyone loved it and we all tried African food for the first time. Thank you for sharing your culture with the world.
Sis, I made Fufu and Egusi soup this weekend!! My children and I loved it for my first time!! I'm soooooo happy! Thank you!
Love how detailed she is with the ingredients as she’s adding it 😍❤️ makes it very easy to follow along
I'M DOMINICAN AND PUERTORICAN THIS I HAVE TO MAKE....LOOKS FREAKING DELICIOUS 🥰❤️😍💯😋💯
My ex’s mother was from Ghana and dad was from Togo. He made this for me and I was instantly loving it ever since. I want to make this for myself and my incredible man ♥️ thanks for the step by step instructions.
I typically find myself fast forwarding through most cooking videos, but not this one. Not only are you a lovely woman but you have the most calming voice... not to mention food that looks absolutely amazing! Our family will be trying this for sure! BTW I love cast iron and use it almost exclusively. I was wondering who the manufacturer of your pot was?
@Miss Jamie Her pot /dutch oven is by Staub.... They're the best and so is Le Crueset

Yoooo I said the same thing ! Her voice and energy lures u in !
And I’m the same way
I’ll fast forward through a lot to get get the point
I found out I am Nigerian! So I’ve been looking for a lot of African foods.. I’ve cooked so many cultures of food this look so good!!! 😩
Good luck
Before trying fufu became a TikTok trend, my Nigerian friend took me to an authentic Nigerian restaurant to try fufu and various stews. Before we arrived, I was already in the mindset of being open to a new experience... from the way the staff would treat me, restaurant atmosphere, food wait time and the way this ancient, sacred food from another continent would taste. When the food finally arrived, I was overwhelmed with joy to be experiencing an array of new flavors.
Then, when I later saw people on TikTok gagging when trying this food, it broke my heart. We need to teach our children and each other how to be more receptive of how different other cultures are. People need to understand what is “normal” in a community’s general taste preferences completely depends on our environment, so “normal” is completely subjective. In order to argue that something is objectively “normal,” the subject matter must concern health.
If you try Nigerian food and think it’s “gross” or “weird,” consider keeping your limited opinions to yourself. It’s a bad look to comment on other cultures based off of your preference of taste.
Beautifully said.
Thank you... very thoughtful.
Excuse me… The TikTok trend was WHAT?!
👍👍👍👍
Why were they even gagging? It's paprika, garlic, onion, and seeds. Or was it the texture? Or using their hands? I'm lost
The BEST egusi recipe out there, tried it myself and my whole family loved it 🤤🤤 defs gonna be making it again 🙌🏾🙌🏾
My heritage is Jamaican/Dominican. I've had the dish a few times thanks to my friends. Your tutorial is clear and easy to follow. So happy I can make this healthy dish for myself ❤️ 🇬🇧
I just finished making the Egusi soup. Thank you for another wonderful recipe. I had ordered Egusi soup at an African restaurant and feel in love but the cost of $19 (with tip) meant that I wouldn't enjoy it often :-( Now thanks to your recipe, I can have Egusi soup anytime I want. And by the way, I did look at many other recipes and your recipe was the easiest to follow. I like your spirit. Thank you my sister!!!
I live by those tips you gave every time I cook: Clean as you go and no wasting of food. That stew looked so delicious!
Your recipe is so delicious that we are making it again this weekend, thank you. Here in Switzerland we don't have many African restaurants, so it's awesome that we have the possibility through this video and others on UA-cam to get to know other cultures and their favorite food
looks delicious..🍲🥂🍾🍲🇬🇭🇺🇿🇳🇬
💫💖
In Zurich are some, but yeah, not enough.
Delicious recipe Chef Lola. I'm amazed how clean you stay. Thank you for sharing, I'll be sharing too 😊
The most amazing Egusi recipe, thoroughly delicious!!!
I had Egusi Soup for the first time in 2013 and fell in love! I havent had it since because all of my African friends are so busy and its a lot to cook. I am black american and love most african dishes.
Her voice is so soothing omg
The first snack that I tried when I landed in Accra for the first time was kelewele purchased from a vendor on my way from the airport. Ghana had me at first bite! Thank you for this and all of the other recipes and step by step instructions for these delicious dishes. You are more than a cook/chef. You are an ambassador. So many Ghanaian dishes remind me of the food that my great grandmother in the South Carolina sea islands prepared. It is amazing how people of African descent in the diaspora, no matter how many generations we've been estranged from the continent, still carry our food and other traditions with us. You absolutely need to be on the Food Network so that those of us who have never tried West African dishes, might be inspired to do so respectfully. TikTok egusi and fufu challenge aside!
Wow this got to be one of the most healthy recipes I've ever seen, so many different nutrients in one dish.
I’m Puerto Rican and my husband is to and he loves fufu and I’m definitely making him this today with your help!! Thanks
I’ve never tried Egusi or Fufu. My family and I have never tried African food but it looks delicious I want to make it already as I’m watching this! Thank you for the recipe 😊
Hahaha I liked your commentary about ppl smacking the fufu. I think it started from someone talking about how he was required to eat fufu with utensils in boarding school, but whenever he'd get home, he would "smack that fufu, no mercy"
I remember it too 🤣🤣😅😅🤣 the way he even said it was overly hilarious 🤣🙏😎
Presentation is absolutely breath taking and refreshing ,my mouth is watering 🤤just imagining the flavors
Dinner time in Virginia and my family LOVES this recipe!!! Tonight was my first time making this delicious dish, but I assure you... it won't be the last. Thank you Nanaaba!!! ❤️
❤️
Very to eat
Thank you so much Auntie!!!! I have made egusi soup before but you have by far made it simple and true to the Nigerian way! Thank you so much ❤❤❤
Thank you for something authentic- we have very few African restaurants in Australia so I love trying authentic recipes.
I love the unpolished melon seeds and Fresh Kale. The brightness of the soup is beautiful and super delicious 🤤 and the Fufu is well done 👍 I call it stress free . See your mouth digging in ooo🤣🤣 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ooooo
She used pumpkin seeds, Latino markets call them Pepita seeds.
so. Wea
I followed the directions word for word and it was delicious my kids even love it. Definitely something to add to the menu. On my way to take my mom a bowl and some fufu
God bless you. Your energy is unmatched. Making this with my sisters.
I live in Indiana and I am SO INTRIGUED to try this! It looks SO DELICIOUS and I can only imagine the amazing tastes it has!!! Thank you for creating this video!!! I am hoping to make this soon!!!
I love the vibrant rich colour of this Egusi soup, it looks so appealing, the kind of soup that can tempt me to break a fast🙈🙈
Awwwww, reward yourself after fasting! Your sister needs to quit all these temptations 🙏😅😅😎🥰❤️
Talk about a comprehensive Egusi soup tutorial, everyone get your pen and paper, let's learn from Nanaaba's Kitchen!
Oh dear, this Egusi soup and fufu looks unbelievable, sista!!!!! You no joke at all. I am coming abeg, I want this one, and nothing else today!
I Dey wait you Kechi 🙏❤️❤️❤️
@@NanaabasKitchen Hahaha
Don't need pen or pencil have the video 😁😁😁😁
This looks sooooo good. I can’t wait to try it. I honestly can’t imagine the taste. All of the flavors are so new to me, but I welcome the challenge. After all this is who I am.
I’m so excited to make this. I’ve never tried Ghanaian food before and I’ve never met an American who’s eaten west african food. It looks delicious, love from America 🇺🇸
4:17 that chicken is so vibrant with the spices. I never even thought to add ginger
6:50 I love pumpkin seeds
I bet for a green leafy vegetable mustard greens would be good
I'm made ! Yesssss first time! Thank you so much! Now I can make me own African food.my ancestors!
Wow I never knew egusi was pumpkin seeds wow wow
I am going to cook this on Sunday . Thank you sis for this beautiful cuisine .
You’ll love it sis 🙏🥰
I can only eat egusi stew (soup for Nigerians) with rice, boiled yam, plantain, eba, banku, kenkey but never with fufu. As Ghanaian fufu is only eaten with soup (watery in nature), but I guess this is the Nigerian way. To each their own, and thanks for the video. 👏 It's good for those who want to try something new. ❤
I see that you made that distinction at the end of the video. This is very well-informed to those who are not familiar with Ghanaian and Nigerian dishes. Good job.👍🏼
I know right! It was quite delicious though! An unusual combo that worked harmoniously 👌 the fufu must be thick though, for it to make sense, in my opinion 🙏❤️
This is the first I'm ever hearing of egusi with yam 🤔🤔
Curios about how that'll taste.
Honestly I think when Nigerians say "Fufu" they are referring to pounded yam or poundo yam. It's like slang to call it fufu. Normally egusi is eaten with pounded yam, eba, or amala.
@@lovelota6334 not really. Fufu is fufu. Pounded yam and the rest are called by their name.
I worked with a Lady from Ghana when I was in the military. She said the EXACT same thing about egusi not being eaten/served with fufu in Ghana and that what we were seeing all over tik tok was Nigerian influence. ❤ I can’t WAIT to make this 😋
From New Orleans about to surprise my girl with this for Mother’s Day we just found out we’re Nigerian so definitely thank you for the fire vid first time eating and cooking this dish wish me luck🤷🏾
Ha saw some young African Americans trying this on tik tok it was hilarious! Thank you I have learned something. Will try cooking it!
I know right!!!! 🙏🥰
I live on the Northside of Chicago so there's a large African community here so we have many African restaurants, but my neighbor has a daughter who is part Nigerian and she made Egusi Stew and it was so delicious. I really enjoyed your video and the pot with the little pig on the handle is so cute ☺
Trends can be powerful. This stew looks sooooo good and has to go viral. I love the serving 😋😋😋
Thank you Rosy 🙏❤️❤️❤️
Thank you, thank you for the recipe for fufu and egusi stew. I had the dish from a friend from Nigeria who moved to California. we lost contact and it’s been a couple few decades searching for this recipe. So happy you shared the recipe.
I’ve been looking for this recipe for years. I had an elementary school teacher who made for us years ago and I couldn’t remember what it was called until recently! Looks like I’m gonna have to order some ingredients and make it!!!
I'm so glad that I found your channel. You made this look so easy now I can cook this for my Nigerian King! I made him Poundo before and it came out lumpy and too soft. I've been trying to figure out how to make Egusi for him. I'm going to surprise him with this! Thank you so much!😊❤️
Omg...watching you cook all these delicious dishes makes me want to move to Africa....I love African food and now I’m learning how to cook it at home. Thank you so much 😊
You’re so welcome Renee 🙏❤️❤️❤️
This seems like the easiest recipe I’ve seen so far. I live 5.5 hours from any African food stores. I live in a very rural area in Northern Ontario. I love it out here so much. It’s beautiful and life is so relaxing. I love food from all cultures. This is the only reason I miss the city sometimes. Thanks for sharing, I’m so excited to try it. I discovered this recipe at 9:20 pm and the chicken in out of the freezer at 9:30 😂 Luckily I have everything in my kitchen to make the soup. The fufu can wait but that soup needs to be ready ASAP 🤤 😍🥰
I love how clear you speak and you annunciate easy to understand thank you I’m trying the recipe now I’ll let you know what hubby thinks when he comes home
He loved it!!!
I love when she say NO WASTE..❤
That is right, Nigerians know what they are doing, it is a great one seeing you make that swallowing so beautifully.
Thank you sissy🙏🙏😎
I LOVE EVERYTHING I'VE SEEN COMING FROM THIS KITCHEN
Thank you so much 🙏❤️
You took words out of my mouth
I'm looking forward to trying this and will absolutely give my feedback. Thank you for sharing the sill and steps to prepare.
Thank you for sharing your culture and recipe. What a Devine looking dish. I am gonna try it as soon as I am able to. Thinking a nice cool fall or winter day this will be just perfect.
I had africa food ONCE IN MY LIFE, and loved it (I have a half black dad so it is in my dna😂) and tonight I'm making this, and it's simmering away now as we speak. I'll try fufu when I can find the ingredients because it looks so good. Hello from Japan.
I typically do not follow tic tok videos......but this looks SO GOOD!!! Going to buy some AND going to try cooking it!!!
If I were u try doing small portion just in case u don’t like it I’m going to try making it sometime soon
This recipe was so simple and fun and tasted so authentic! Thank you for this video ❤
Where is the recipe?
Thank you. I needed this! 🙏🏼🇰🇭🤍
Egusi soup is one of my favorite Nigerian dishes. 😋
You have a beautiful smile and I was just watching to see the different ways to make it I’ve never made it with chicken but I will try it thank you for Sharing your recipes with us and I greatly appreciate it
Loved this video and all the personality. I have a lot of African friends, and they feed me all the time. This here is my favorite meal!!
You killed this recipe sis! I have had Egusi so many times and never knew it was pumpkin seeds!! Damn the knowledge bomb you just dropped!
Back home, it is African melon seed, and there are different varieties of them.
RIGHT exactly, now i have the knowledge, it is the simplest thing that makes all the difference
In Africa, it’s actually melon seed.
The inviting colour.of the Egusi soup.is everything for me. The was very detailed for our tik tok friends
came for the soup, left with a house in the bay area ¯\_( ツ )_/¯
Awesome!
Thank you Ido 🙏❤️
I’ve been eating West African food, but now I’ve just decided to start making it myself (because I’m eating it so much now…lol). Made some good red red and also okra soup. Now going to try this. Thank you for this recipe! Great teaching style….including the cleanliness, love it 😊
Very excited. My 19 yr granddaughter and I drove to have our first taste of African food yesterday. We fell in love. We will make this, thankyou
She makes me feel at home🥺❤️
Omg sister I’m so excited! I had the honour of eating this and it was absolutely delicious! I fell in love with it and wanted to learn how to make it myself. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. I’m off to our local African store to purchase palm oil , fufu, and dried herring.
I've always wanted to learn how to make fufu because it reminds of my 3rd grade teacher who had brought fufu and okra stew to school so we as kids can enjoy it. Boy, was it good!!! Here I am twenty years later, still craving some more Fufu and okra stew to enjoy. Amazing!!!❤
Thank you so much for sharing your recipe!! ♥️♥️ My boyfriend is Nigerian and we love egusi and I finally got to make it for him with your video and it was amazingggg and flavorful 🥰 we loved it
Watching from the philippines, i love african people and their food so yummy
Thank you so much for this video! I live in an area that’s not so ethnic and this was very helpful. I will definitely be making some soon! ❤️❤️
Im from Guyana and we maje fufu with pound boiled green plantain or boiled yellow yams. Have ever made fufu with any if these roit veggies. Very labir intensive I must say. Love your cooking
😋😋😋😋
I discovered egusi last year looking for recommendations on what to order to support local African restaurants. I have dared to make it once only with oatmeal fufu. I like this simplified recipe too since this is what is readily available without going to a specialty store.
I ran to subscribe when you explained what egusi is... all these years, and I can not remember a video ever teaching this. Love it. Great video.
Sister madam I just want to give you the biggest shout out in the world.. since watching your video I have made this recipe twice and my family absolutely loves it. They say it’s better than the restaurants.. just know we definitely mention you every time we eat egusi and fufu❤thank you again❤❤ur the best..
Great video! Being Nigerian, this is way different from how we make it in my household (and how I was taught growing up) but the final product looked pretty appetizing and the process was easy to follow for anyone that’s a newbie. Africa to the world!🇳🇬
What’s your classic recipe?
@@BasedSockHead007 nice try guy, haha doubt she’ll give it up so easily
I was wondering what that thing that look like egg was omg it’s pumpkin seeds which I love oh my days this must taste good can’t wait to try!!!
its called egusi/ agushi(its melon seeds that are grinded already or sometimes they come as a whole(not grounded) you can get them from the african grocery stores or some asian and international grocery stores
@@moonlightandstaryeyesbestr6061 Yes, I have never heard Egusi identified as 'pumpkin seeds', I've always understood Egusi to be melon seeds. That part of the video confused me enormously.
This seems hella similar to our dish, in Mexico we call it, Pipian!!! I highly recommend it to everybody 😊
Maybe both dishes originated from the same place - Africa.
No similar to pipián at all, except for the seeds
Thank you for sharing your recipe my children have requested to try authentic African dishes and this was made simple for me to understand
Wow you are very thoughtful and thorough! Much appreciated! 🙏🏻🙌🏻
Thank you, Sister Madame, for your Egusi Soup recipe! My wife cannot take spice, but my son and I love it and cannot wait! Also we have a few good African grocery stores around here for stockfish, herring, etc. I already have all the ingredients except the herring. I will try this soon and let you know how it went. Thank you again! :)
I’m excited 🙏🙏🙏🙏 you can also substitute with the stock fish 🙏🥰
Am frm jamaica what exactly is stock fish
@Adam Churvis I’m eating it right now it’s so flavorful and delicious
@@NanaabasKitchen delicious I’m eating it now it’s a Nigerian restaurant in my area and aunts and grandparents own it the food omgeeeee
I'm in love with West African food now, that stew kills it! A perfect marriage with that fufu with happy ending ( in my mouth😋)
Can’t wait to cook this! I love to try out cooking cuisines from different cultures. This looks delicious 😍
Tonight was the night that I faced my fears and made FuFu and Egusi! Well I did it and it turned out absolutely wonderful!!! Thank you so much for sharing your recipe.
I never tried fufu and egusi my whole life, I wasnt even near to it and since the first time I came to know about it, I crave it SO much. Finally found a awesome recipe and will try to make it. Thank you ❤️
Thank you! Excited for you to try it 🙏🏽❤️
I’m native anishnaabe kwe, and this food has been so intriguing to me lately, I think I’m going to try and make this, thank you! In our culture we make scone, with wild rice soup..but nothing compared to what you made!
