MY SUMPTUOUS AFANG SOUP||AM STILL IN #club5050 AFTER POWERING UP 400 STEEM ON SUNDAY, JUST 3 DAYS AGO|| 50% TO SF-CHARITYY
This soup is prepared with a combination of leafs and other ingredients. It is mostly made of leafs without water. That is the little secret.
Afang soup is majorly eaten by people from Akwaibom and Calabar states. It is one of their major soups. I had been in love with these soup even before coming to dwell among them. The whole family enjoys eating it and so today, I decided to prepare a very delicious one for us.

Ingredients | quantities |
---|---|
Afang (Ukazi) | 1000g |
Water leaf | 700g |

Crayfish | 500g |

GALLARY
Since the soup is basically leafy soup, they are usually in large quantities because they also serve as thicker especially the Ukazi leaf.
Prepare procedures
First, I got my leafs ready. I sliced the leafs, both Ukazi or afang and the water leaf.
I then washed the water leaf thoroughly and set aside.
I grinded the afang leaf along crayfish and set aside
I then proceeded to get the stock ready.
I washed my meat and fish including the periwinkle into my cooking pot. I didn't add water only the ones that drained from the meat and every other thing I washed.
I pounded fresh pepper and added. Next, I added stock cube and salt, turned them very well inside the pot to make sure the ingredients touches everything. I also added onions
I placed the pot on fire to cook. The meat was well Cooke after a little while with just a very small water. At the end when the meat softened, the water had dried up.
I added the water leaf along with the afang leaf that contains the crayfish and covered the pot.
I allowed it to cook for just about 5 to 10 minutes. I checked it and then, it was great. I then added palm oil, salt to taste. I allowed it again for like 3 to 5 minutes, guess what? The soup was ready already.

Very simple to prepare.
The only thing that takes time is getting the leafs ready. It was as simple as ABC. Perhaps you can try it out. Remember that the little secret is on not adding water. The water from the leafs is the only thing that is required so long as your meat or stocks are softened.

Thank you dear. You will really like it. The water leaf contains water on its own, so when it Brings out it's water, it will just be enough of what the soup needs coupled with the palm oil. It is usually amazing
