Egusi soup is one of the most common Nigerian soups with different ways of making it. This recipe is tested and trusted. The soup is fried to achieve the grainy look and thickness of the soup instead of the all lumped up together kind.The fried pepper base can be done in advance so you can cut down cooking time. Enjoy.

Did you take awara as fried snack only ? its worth and much beyond that. I tried to subtituted egusi with tofu(awara ) for my egusi soup because its available and more cheaper than egusi which everyone can afford. Awara is a healthy and nutritious protein made from soyabeans it is very good for our kids health so give it a try thetaste was superb....#CDF
