Why You’ll Love It
-
The “Fried” Base: We slow-fry our blended bell peppers, scotch bonnets, and onions in bleached palm oil to create a rich, smoky foundation.
-
Rich in Iru: Seasoned with fermented locust beans (Iru) to provide that traditional, pungent depth that defines a true Lagos-style kitchen.
-
No-Water Recipe: We cook our spinach down so the soup isn’t watery—just a thick, luscious coating of oil and pepper for every leaf.
-
Premium Proteins: Packed with a mouth-watering mix of smoked fish, stockfish, shaki (tripe), and succulent pieces of beef or goat meat.

Our Quality Guarantee
-
Freshness First: We use a high-heat “flash-stir” technique for the vegetables to ensure they stay vibrant and nutrient-rich without becoming mushy.
-
Authentic Sourcing: From the hand-picked peppers to the traditional Iru, every ingredient is selected to give you that “Owanbe” party taste.
Chef’s Note: The secret to our Efo Riro is the smoke. We use a combination of dried prawns and smoked catfish to ensure that every bite has a deep, layered flavor that stays with you.
