Gbegiri

description Gbegiri Overview

Gbegiri is a traditional soup of Yoruba origin in southwestern Nigeria, made from pureed beans—typically brown beans or black-eyed peas. The preparation involves soaking, peeling, and blending the beans into a smooth paste that is then cooked with palm oil, onions, and seasonings to form a thick, rich soup. It is commonly served with amala, a starchy swallow made from yam or cassava flour, and is often accompanied by ewedu soup and stewed meats in a classic Yoruba combination.
