Okra Soup with Ogbono Ingredients

Okra 500g
Ogbono 1/2 cup
Palm Oil 3 cooking spoons
Assorted beef and fish (Mackerel)
Crayfish: a handful
Stock cubes: 2
Pepper and Salt (to taste)
Onions: 1 small bulb

Tips for cooking Okra Soup
1. Cut the Okra, don't blend it. This is so that the Okra soup will not be mushy when done. Okra soup is very slimy and blending the Okra makes is even more slimy.

2. Cook the Okra for only a few minutes so that the Okra will look green and appetising when you serve the dish. The more you cook the Okra, the more they change from green to dark brown and the Okra soup look unappetising.

Okra Soup goes well with all nigerian fufu recipes.

Follow the link in the descripition of this video to my webiste and search for those soups using the search box when you get there. :)
