What is Ewa Agayin?
Ewa Agoyin is one of Lagos's most iconic street foods, brought to Nigeria by Togolese migrants and adopted as a city staple. Beans are cooked until very soft, then topped with a rich, oily palm oil sauce made with dried peppers and onion. The result is deeply savoury, slightly smoky, and sweet from the soft beans. At Miliki Spot, it is served with fried plantain.
Ewa Agoyin originates from Togo but is now deeply embedded in Lagos street food culture. The sauce — sometimes called the Agoyin sauce — is what defines the dish.
Is this dish right for you?
The beans are soft enough to eat without any chewing difficulty. The sauce is the star — bold, oily, and fragrant. A good option for customers who enjoy beans and want something distinctly Nigerian.
