Peanut soup or groundnut soup is a soup made from peanuts, often with various other ingredients. It is a staple African cuisine but is also eaten in East Asia ( Taiwan), the United States (mainly in Virginia) [1] [2] and other areas around the world. It is also common in some regions, such as Argentina's northwest, [3] [4] Bolivia [5] and Peru, [6] where it can sometimes be served with bone meat and hollow short pasta or fries. In Ghana it is often eaten with fufu, omo tuo and banku often very spicy. [7] Groundnut soup is also a native soup of the Benin (Edo) people in Nigeria and it is often eaten with pounded yam. [8] [9] [10] Some of the essential ingredients used in making it are Piper guineense (uziza seed) and Vernonia amygdalina (bitter leaf). [11] [12]

It is prepared from groundnut which is mashed into a paste, [13] usually termed as groundnut paste. When cooked, the groundnut is ashy pink in color. [14] Groundnut soup is eaten with eba, fufu, banku, kenkey and so on. [15] It is a delicacy that Nigerian, Ghanaian and people in other African countries consume, such as in Sierra Leone. [16] In Ghana, it is known as nkatenkwan in Akan language and "Azidetsi" in Ewe language.
