Efo Riro is a rich, spicy Nigerian vegetable soup made primarily with leafy greens cooked in a flavorful tomato and pepper stew. The name comes from the Yoruba language — “efo” meaning vegetables and “riro” meaning stirred or mixed. It’s a staple dish in southwestern Nigeria and is deeply rooted in Yoruba cuisine.
