Published on: April 2, 2020

  • 3 Tbsp Organic Red Palm Oil
  • One chicken cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2-3 onions, chopped
  • 2 cups chicken broth or stock
  • 2 tomatoes, or canned tomatoes, or tomato paste or tomato sauce
  • 1 Cup egusi seeds (or substitute), roasted and ground
  • several sprigs parsley, or similar

This chicken soup is thickened with flour ground from seeds of a melon or gourd (species of cucurbitaceae) called egusi.

Sesame seeds can also be used.
