👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Prepare the beans: After soaking the brown beans overnight, thoroughly rinse them. Rub the beans between your hands to loosen and remove the skins. This can be done by hand or by using a food processor on a pulse setting for a few seconds (be careful not to over-process into a paste). Rinse repeatedly until most of the skins have floated away. Drain well.
⏱️ 15 minutes
2
Cook the beans: Place the peeled beans in a large pot. Add the roughly chopped onion. Cover with plenty of water (about 3-4 inches above the beans). Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer. Cook for approximately 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the beans are extremely soft and easily mashable. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface during cooking. Add more hot water if needed to keep the beans submerged.
⏱️ 1 hour 30 minutes
3
Puree the beans: Once the beans are very soft, drain off most of the cooking water, reserving about 1-2 cups. Transfer the cooked beans and onion to a blender or food processor. Add the locust beans and ground crayfish. Blend until you achieve a very smooth, thick puree. If the mixture is too thick to blend, add some of the reserved cooking water, a little at a time, until smooth. Alternatively, use an immersion blender directly in the pot.
⏱️ 10 minutes
4
Finish the soup: Return the bean puree to the pot. Stir in the palm oil. Place the pot over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 10-15 minutes. The soup will thicken slightly and the palm oil will integrate, giving it a rich golden color and distinct aroma. Season with salt and optional pepper to taste. Ensure it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot.
⏱️ 15 minutes
5
Serve: Ladle the hot Gbegiri into bowls. It is traditionally served as part of the 'Abula' combination, alongside Ewedu (jute leaf soup) and a meat/fish stew. It can also be enjoyed with pounded yam, amala, or eba.
