One thing we appreciate about the Nigerian community is that, when you think you know all the soup in the country, you start to see new type of soups and you are just amazed by the innovation put into making this soups. That is one thing that makes the Nigerian nation a great one, our different ethnicity and groups has afforded us varieties in lifestyle, ideas and even food. One of this varieties sent by our subscriber (Deyinka) is the Miyan Gyada, also known as the groundnut soup.
This soup is a great idea to add to your food menu and you will just love it unique taste and texture.

2cups groundnut
Spinach leaves

For fufu.
Easy method.
Easy method.
1. Buy fufu powder and stir in boiling water till its ready when thick.
2. Buy ready made fufu.3.From the scratch... Buy cassava tubers, peel and dice and soak for 3 days without changing the water to let fufu ferment.
Drain tubers by placing in a cheese cloth and putting an heavy object on it. Let it sit for 2-3 hrs. Place drained tubers in a mortar and pound to a pulp.
Bring water to boil and stir pulp in water till it forms a paste OR boil drained tubers in water and pound to a pulp. I've tried all 3 methods...
Happy cooking
