There are several ways of going about making Ogbono soup. Ogbono soup also has so many combinations (with fresh okro, or dried okro, or egusi, etc) and the choice of ingridients can vary. You may also prepare it with leaves (such as ugwu) or without. I will give an outline on how to prepare one variant of it using only some of the most basic ingridients. Feel free to experiment when you get the hang of it. List of Ingridients: Ogbolo - grinded with or without oil Palm oil Dried fish Beef cuts Pepper - dried and grinded onions salt maggi or any prefered seasoning cubes A whisk (you could use your desert spoon. it's not quite as effective though). Put your meat in a pot and add water, salt, pepper, seasoning cubes, onions etc. Let it cook until the meat is just done but not too soft. Remove the meat (you will add it back in later). If your ogbolo is the dry-grind type put a desert spoon full of it in a bowl and disolve it in about four desert spoon full of hot water and be sure to mash in all the lumps (with this procedure you will not need a whisk). If your ogbolo is grinded with palm oil to form a paste, you will be needing a whisk when you introduce it into your soup. Let the pot of broth (meat water) boil on on the cooker as you introduce your ogbolo into it. Continue ti stir/whisk until the ogbolo becomes homogeneous with the broth. The thickness will depend on how much ogbolo you used. You will need to keep stirring the soup every now and again so that it will not begin to burn. Put your meat cuts back in the soup. Measure about half a desert spoon of palm oil and strir it into the soup. If you are using vegetable leafs (like ugwu, or bitter-leaf) this will be a good time to add it to the soup. Stir in any additional ingredient like dried fish, etc. Add any extra salt or seasoning to taste. Let the soup cook for about 10 more minutes (or however much longer it takes the added ingridients to get well cooked. Please do not cover the pot after addind the ogbolo to the broth. The pot shpild remain open until the soup is done. This will prevent condensed moisture from seeping back into the soup and thining it out. Even when the soup is done, Leave the pot open or half open until the temprature is just warm before covering and refrigirating. Please make sure the taste of the seasoning is just a little less than your desired optimal (if you intend to eat the soup over several days). This is because the seasoning in the soup tends to become more concentrated each time you warm up the soup since moisture will evaporate from the soup. It will end up tasting saltier and more seasoned than it did on the first day. Do not add water to it when you warm it up subsequently. This is just a rough directive. If you go through the first thread on this board you are bound to find something more comprehensive from some of the more seasoned cooks on the forum. Good luck |
