About Groundnut soup

Groundnut Soup, also known as Peanut Soup, is a rich and flavorful dish originating from West Africa. It’s crafted using ground peanuts as the base and typically includes ingredients like tomatoes, onions, garlic, spices, and protein options such as chicken, fish, or beef. This creamy soup is often served with rice, yams, or fufu, making it a hearty and satisfying meal. Packed with protein and healthy fats from the peanuts, Groundnut Soup provides sustained energy and essential nutrients like magnesium and vitamin E. The vegetables contribute fiber and antioxidants, supporting digestive health and immunity. However, its richness can also make it calorie-dense, and caution is advised with added oils or meats if you're monitoring fat intake. Groundnut Soup beautifully balances nourishment and indulgence, making it a beloved staple in African cuisine with increasing global appeal.
