The Ogbono okro soup is very similar to the normal okro soup.The only difference is the okro that is been added to it. This takes it to a whole new level. If you haven't tried it out, I highly suggest you do.

Assorted meat (Beef, cow leg, shaki, chicken)
4 Cayenne Pepper
1 Opeyi (locust beans)
1 Table spoon of grounded Red pepper
1 Teaspoon of grounded Black pepper
1 Table spoon of Crayfish
Ugwu ( pumpkin leaves)
2 Maggi cubes
1 Onion
Salt to taste
Procedure
Step 1: In a pot containing shaki, beef, chicken and cow leg, season and allow to boil for about 30 minutes and set aside.
Step 2: Heat up the Palm oil in a pot for 2 minute, add the sliced onions stir. Then add the chopped pepper. Stir continuously on medium heat for some minutes and set aside to cool.
Step 4: To the above mixture, add the grounded Ogbono and mix properly
Step 5; Add the crayfish, pepper, opeyi , maggi, salt and stir
Step 6; Add the meat stock, mix properly. then place on the cooker and allow to boil on medium heat.
Step 7: Now add the sliced okro and leave to boil for 10 minutes or more.
Step 8: Finally add the ugwu, stir and allow to cook for 2 minutes.
Viola! your soup is ready to be served.
Have you tried the okro Ogbono soup? Do you have a different way of preparing yours? Please share, I would love to hear from you
PS:
I had previously boiled the cow leg and shaki separately before boiling it together with the beef because it takes a while to become tender.
