Goat Meat Light Fufu Soup ( Togolese Pepper soup)
Goat Meat Light Fufu Soup (Cuisine Togolaise) is one of my favorite soup to go with the fabulous Togolese pounded yam fufu. Check here for recipe video. Any meat will work perfect for this soup, but today I just opted for goat meat. I am using my 360 cookware 6 quart slow cooker set. You can get yours at 20%OFF with discount code SAVOUROUS20. What I like about this pot is how versatile it is. The same pot can be use as a slow cooker —On a stove top including induction —- And in the oven! So now you know why I love this baby so much! Back to my fufu soup recipe, all you need is:
- Goat meat
- Ginger Onion
- Akpi seed or Djassang (optional)
- Bouillon, salt
- Hot pepper
- Cloves
- Black pepper
- Fresh tomato and onion
- Water (you can use boiled yam water if making yam fufu at the same time otherwise water is good)
Ingredients
3-5 pounds of cubed goat meat
About 8 cups of water (or boiled yam water)
5 Tablespoons of ginger paste
5 Tablespoons of onion paste
About 10 cloves
about 6 Akpi seeds or Djassang (optional)
1 Big fresh crushed tomato
1/2 medium onion sliced
2 Tablespoons of black pepper
4 Tablespoons of bouillon powder (or to taste)
4 habanero peppers (less if hot pepper heat is an issue)

In the 4quart 360 cookware pot, add the clean cubed goat meat.

Cover and let it cook for 30mins to 45 mins (depends on how soft you want the meat).
5
Open the lid, add your water, then remove the pot from the slow cooker base and place it on stove top at high heat.
6
Add the crushed tomato, sliced onion and hot pepper.
7
Let it boil for about 3 mins then taste the soup. If you feel it need salt or bouillon, add a little of those to your taste.

This Togolese goat meat fufu soup is very light and similar to Nigerian style pepper soup.
Check here for the recipe video. It goes so well with fufu or as is, perfect during cold days. You can make it vegan by using mushrooms as meat.
