Ogbono Soup

Step 1

Put the meats, stockfish, ground local spices, seasoning, crayfish, diced onions and yellow chili in a pot. Let the meat steam in its own juices to bring out the flavour.

Step 2

Add water and salt and cook until the meat is tender.

Step 3

Blend the ogbono seeds with crayfish in a dry blender. Pour into a bowl and mix with palm oil.

Step 4

Add the fresh pepper mix, native spices and iru to the meat stock. Add a little water and boil to remove the raw pepper taste.

Step 5

Add the ogbono mixture to the pot little by little.

Step 6

Finish by stirring in scent leaves or uziza leaves.
