Chef Lilian's Egusi Kit- Nigerian West African Food Kit with Ground Melon Seeds (Egusi), Dehydrated Spinach, Seasoning Cubes, Hot Pepper Powder, Soup Mix 4 Servings (Pack of 1)

This packet has been a game changer. Saved me tons of catering cost during the holidays. I just added some garlic and extra bag of spinach. BE CAREFUL WITH EXTRA PEPPER PACKET. it looks like the dried shrimp seasoning so read the packets carefully before using them. In fact take the pepper packet out completely/separate it from other packets. Next time I might skip the extra pepper packet as it's extremely spicy. Also I was concerned the egusi would not be enough but it was the right amount. Just prep your proteins ahead of time. It make about a half pan of Egusi. Great price point. Family loved it. I can't wait to try the efo riro.

Nicely and neatly packaged. Easy to use, instructions clear. Tasty and authentic. Highly recommended

My wife and I have never tried egusi and heard it was delicious. After researching many recipes, we searched to find a kit with the ingredients instead of having to special order certain ingredients in bulk. Found this kit, and after reading the reviews we were definitely not disappointed! I added chopped fresh spinach. I cut beef pot roast into decent sized cubes and cooked it with fresh diced onions separately until tender, and used the juices as the beef broth. My wife and I love spicy food, the spicy pepper that came with the kit was very spicy by itself, but after adding little by little we chose to add the entire package and added cayenne pepper for extra spice to our liking. The egusi was perfectly spicy and had amazing flavor! We ate it with fufu. Thank you for this wonderful egusi kit, we will definitely be ordering more in the future!!!

This was nice for a small pot of egusi but I wish there was more melon seed and crayfish included in the kit. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. Not sure I will order again.

Living in a place where access to international foods is challenging, but I found this and I was so happy! The kids loved it and I loved it too. It was flavorful and you can control the spice. It wasn't authentic like homemade, but close enough. Will buy again and possibly gift to others.

We made it using these products and it was successful. We eat Egusu alot from different restaurants. It was different, as they all are , and good. We made alot . Used 4 packages. Did not use red pepper cause my husband, being from Africa, thought it might be too hot.

I grew up eating my mom's traditional dishes, and recently I moved from home. Coming across this kit, I figured I'd give it a try. I honestly was not expecting it to taste so authentic! I'm on my second bowl now as I type this! I made mine with about 2 pounds of chicken thighs that I cut into chunks and seasoned as the package instructed. I also did not have to add too much salt to the finished soup, maybe about 1tsp. It's honestly so delicious! I've never made Nigerian food, so I'm very excited that this approachable kit actually came together and tastes good! I'll be keeping these stocked in my pantry!!

BUY IT! I added chicken to the recipe as my protein and followed the super simple instructions on the bag. served this without letting them know I used a kit. They said it was spot on and great quality! I was proud and afterwards told them it was this kit and they couldn’t believe it. This is a great way to show interest in the culture and impress (and surprise) your Nigerian friends and loved ones with some delicious traditional egusi! I served mine with pounded yam. Will buy many more. Thanks Chef Lillian! 🙂
