Àbùlà is a soup that originated from Yoruba people from Yorubaland. It is typically eaten together with amala, but can be eaten with other swallow foods. Abula literally means a mixture of soups but is mostly associated with a mixture of gbegiri (bean soup), ewedu (draw vegetable soup) and ọbẹ̀ ata (stew).
Abula is considered a delicacy because it is not a common meal. It takes considerable time and effort to make. This meal is eaten commonly among the Yoruba people of Ọ̀yọ́ and Ogbómòṣọ́
