  • Red Oil

  • Water

  • Onion

Pardon me, I couldn't capture all ingredients in my picture, but I will be very detailed in my explanation and we will see them all there.

Procedure:

  • Thoroughly wash meat and stockfish:
    First get the meat and stockfish washed as seen from my below picture.

  • Season the washed meat with salt, Maggi and onion, then add little water and cook for 5 munits.

  • Grind your Pepper and crawfish and add to the cooked meat and stockfish. Also add the knorr Maggi and allow to cook for 3 munits.

  • Add red Oil of your desired quantity to the pot.

  • Add little water and slice a little onion and add to your melon, turn it thoroughly till all get mixed up, then add the melon mixture to the pot and allow to cook for 5 munits.

  • Taste the food for salt and add more salt if need be.

  • Finally, add the Bitter Leaf and allow to cook for 3 munits.

In most cases I love frying my melon, but in this case I cooked it along side the food without frying and the taste was still good.

The Egusi (melon) Soup doesn't need much water, so I prefer cooking it with the water from my per-boiled meat.

  • And finally, our food is ready.

The below is my por of Egusi Soup after the food was ready for consumption.
