Garden Egg Leaf Soup (Ofe Akwukwo Anara)

Being a true born of Igbo Land, i have acquired so much knowledge towards our traditional foods. I enjoy preparing our soups alot and today! Yez i prepared one. In mt native language, you call it "Ofe akwukwo anara" but in English you can note it as Garden Egg leaf soup. And it happened to be that i made this soup with it natural constituents amd i made it reall fast.

Here Are The Ingredients:

● Garden Egg Leaf.
● Palm oil.
● Stockfish (fish dried in an open air without salt).
● Dried fish.
● Fresh pepper.
● Ofor (My thickener).
● Salt.

Preparation:

Having grinded my dried fish with fresh pepper, i mixed it together with stockfish and steam it a little then added water to it. Added my seasoning cube and salt to taste. After the stockfish have soften, i add palm oil to steam then added my thickner and covered to steam well. In less than 5 minutes, the soup is becoming almost ready, and then i added my leaf after i have washed it with salt.

The preparation of this soup isn't that hard, and doesn't take time unless, you choose to use meat, fish, periwinkle, snail etc.
