Goat meat pepper soup
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Goat meat pepper soup, also referred to as nwo-nwo,[1] ngwo-ngwo,[2] and goat pepper soup,[3][4] is a soup in Nigeria. Goat meat is used as a primary ingredient, and some versions may use crayfish.[5][6] For variations boiled yams, potatoes, or plantains may be added. Versions of the soup may be spicy and hot.[2][6] The soup is always served hot and is made with a blend of different spices which gives an intense spiciness and flavor to the soup.[7] The dish has been described as being the most popular out of all the Nigerian pepper soups.[1] It is a light soup that is often prepared without the use of oil,[8] and may also be drunk in the style of a beverage.[2] Owing to the ‘light’ texture of the soup, it is typically eaten alone but it can be accompanied by a side-dish known as agidi (a type of cornmeal that is regarded as best-paired with okra and pepper soups, alike). White rice is also a common side-dish served with goat meat pepper soup. It has been described as pairing well with palm wine and beer.[1]
