As we all know it takes alot of money these days to get good food from the restaurants and eateries. Do you spend on necessarily on food and it is giving you sleepless nights, due to the fact that what leaves your pocket is higher then what you receive as income? Then worry no more 😊😊 I present to you

Get your note pads and pen ready as we move on this food adventure.
Today on Liams Campus Kitchen Vibes, I will be teaching us how to make the Okra Soup😋😋😋😋.

The Okra Soup

Before I dish out all needed food stuffs let's get a little details of the Vegetable Okra😉.

Okra, also known as gumbo or ladies’ fingers, is a warm-season vegetable. It is a good source of minerals, vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber. It contains a sticky juice that people use to thicken sauces.It is an essential crop in many countries due to its high nutritional value. Also, people can use many parts of the plant, including the fresh leaves, buds, flowers, pods, stems, and seeds.A diet rich in fruits and vegetables can reduce a person’s chances of developing a range of health conditions, including obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
The mucilage of okra may also help remove toxins from the body.
The nutrients in okra may make it useful for preventing several health problems, including: Cancer, Diabetes, Heart health, Osteoporosis, etc.

Okra

  • Make sure the vegetables (Okra and Pumpkin) are washed properly
  • Cut the Okra Vegetables to your preference, you can also grate it.
  • Wash your meat and fish (if your are using that) properly and steam it for 5-7 mins with Pepper, salt, Maggi and other seasonings. (Always use a pinch big salt to avoid stories that touches the heart)
    Get all needed food stuffs around you and proceed to cook.

Now to the Preparation

Note: The Okra Soup Can be made either by frying or boiling method

Frying method:
Put on your cooker ( Stove, firewood, hotplates or gas), put your cooking pot on your cooker then pour in your red oil ( please don't mess your soup by add much), allow it to steam then put your Okra and let it fry for 1mins befor adding your steamed meat or fish (Optional). For those who aren't using any of these just as water. Allow it to boil for 5mins then you add up your ingredients, Let it boil for another 15mins. Befor adding your pumpkin leaves. Your soup is ready 😋😋😋😋 then you make your garri and enjoy your soup for yourself and by yourself ❤️😁😁..
For the boiling aspect just put your steamed fish and meat first, add water before adding the oil and the Okra, then continue with the rest procedures.
Major problems you may encounter
The major problem you can only encounter in your preparation may be Salinity or the soup being too salty so always use very little pinch of salt to get your desired soup ready..
With as little as #1500 (One thousand five hundred naira) you can make this and eat for two days or more..
