AFANG SOUP Preparation - Crossing borders with my culinary skills.
It’s another beautiful Sunday for the Hive Learners Creative Sunday Initiative and as usual, you will spend some time with me in the kitchen.
For today’s entry, I decided to cross borders. Food is one of the unique things that define our culture and I hope my Igbo brothers and sisters will take their time to rate my preparation of one of their favourite soups. Although I didn’t use all the condiments they would have used but I felt really happy preparing the soup.
In this post, I will take you through the process of preparing the delicious Afang Soup so relax, learn and enjoy.
Afang Soup is one of the most nutritious soups out there and the aroma plus taste make it just irresistible to many people. The major recipe are vegetables and protein which gives us vital nutrients needed by our body system.
Recipes
- Pumpkin leaf
- Waterleaf
- Palm oil
- Chicken
- Seasoning
- Locust beans
- Basil leaf
- Onion
- Pepper
- Cowskin
- Stockfish
Preparation.
Remember health is wealth so before anything will be done, all the recipes that need to be processed must be processed. Cooking isn’t just about making a meal, it involves cleanliness as well. We eat to stay healthy so let’s always do it right.
After cleaning the recipes, I started cooking.
I started with cooking the chicken, cowskin and stock fish. I added some onions, and seasoning and allowed it to cook properly.
After cooking, I poured palm oil into the cooked chicken and others. I added blended pepper, locust beans, the remaining onions and seasoning. I allowed everything to cook again for about four minutes before adding the vegetables at separate times.
- I added the water leaf and basil leaf first, the pumpkin leaf went in about three minutes later. I allowed everything to cook again for another three minutes before turning off the cooker.
Preparing Afang Soup doesn’t take time since the soup is made up of basically vegetables. The soup is economical depending on the protein you want to use, the recipes aren’t restricted to everything written up there.
You can add prawn, octopus, crab, beef and any other protein you can afford. The soup is delicious and goes well with any swallowed meal, I had mine with Fufu and really enjoyed it.
Thanks for reading and watching the video, wishing you all a beautiful week.

That's true, it's very easy to prepare and goes with any food.
I take it with fufu, I don't know why sha but it tastes better with it. Thanks a lot for the curation.
We use eggs and meat soup in Pakistan during Winter. This Soup is totally new for me, I shall check these ingredients from Lahore, Emporium Mall Pakistan, if they are available then I can give a try to this.
During the cold season, I love to eat catfish soup because it's always spicy.
I hope you find the recipe and try it out for yourself.
the preparation method is really good keep it up
Thanks a lot, I am glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks man, it's a very delicious soup. You can give it a try or just visit an Igbo kitchen around you, I bet you will love the soup.
How many varient of soup exist in this earth and how many of them you can make. I am saying it because soup is not so popular here and I have little knowledge about it. I can't make it also but I feel someday I need make a try. Thank you for the video.
!PIZZA
Ahhhh! Mr Georgieeee your wife is enjoying oo. Husband material.
This is amazing Georgie. Love your content as always and loved the delicious way you made the soup. I know why you're always glowing now.
Good living.😩😩
So, Afang soup is actually an Akwa Ibom food. So it's not affiliated with the Igbo tribe, even though it's enjoyed there as well. And we have an actual leaf called afang leaf. 🤗
Lolz, glowing? I dey your back my lady, you are the glowing lady on the blockchain.
Thanks for telling me about the leaf, I will check it out. I really don't know the difference between edikiakon and afang.
Weldone, nice meal you've got here.
Thanks ma, I appreciate your visit.
I need to dethrone your bae and take her place because enjoyment of too much with a guy like you.
Awesome culinary skill, but this one is known as a vegetable soup or edikaikong, there is real afang leaf😁
Yeah, treasure told me about it. I really didn't know there was an afang leaf, I have been eating it like this thinking it's afang.
I will buy the leaf and see what it looks like, I will prepare again to see the difference.

Lolz, very soon sir. I need to ensure Princess Dara tastes my food so she can endorse me to other royals in the UK.
