Step 1

If using meat, start by boiling the meat with water at the same level of the meat until tender. Half way through the cooking, season with salt and 1/4 of the chopped onions.

Step 2

Mix egusi with water to form a paste. Add to boiled meat and let it cook for 10 minutes. Add in smoked fish and let them cook for another 5-10 minutes. Be sure to check the consistency of the soup as you go, adding more water as needed.

Step 3

Now add in Maggi, salt to taste and crayfish. Mix well and let them simmer for two minutes.

Step 4

Add in chopped or roughly blended okra (please watch video to see how I prepare the okra). Mix well with the rest of the soup. Add in water as needed. If you want it lighter, add in more water. Let it cook for 2-5 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the okra. It should still look green and vibrant. Taste to make sure seasoning is perfect.

Step 5

Serve with cooked garri or any fufu of choice.
