Onugbu soup is a meal originated from the eastern part of Nigeria. Not everyone can prepare it though.

Ingredients:

  • Stockfish

  • Bitter leaf

  • Pepper

  • Crayfish

  • Onions (optional)

  • Firstly, I boiled the palm kernel fruits and cocoyam together for about an hour till soft.

  • Then I brought it down and poundes the cocoyam to a paste, pounded the kernel fruits and then seived out the juice. Then I put them both to the boil

  • To the cocoyam and palm kernel mixture, I put in my already cooked meat, stockfish and dry fish, Ogiri, crayfish, pepper then allowed to boil till all the ingredients were combined.

  • Then i added my thoroughly washed bitter leaf soup to the boil, allowed to cook for five minutes then brought down

The mouth watering delicacy

This meal can be eaten with garri, akpu (fufu), wheat or any other soft meal of your choice....i heard some people eat it with rice too🤷‍♀️..whichever way, it is sumptuously good. 👍 Although if the leaves are not thoroughly washed, the soup becomes very bitter.

I'm really happy to share my recipe today

As an African man, I prefer Akpu.
