INTRODUCTION: Okro soup is one of the quickest and easiest Nigerian soups to prepare.It is always tasty and delicious.They are best when eaten fresh and immature. NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS OF OKRA AS A VEGETABLE/SOUP. 1) The constituent of meats,fish and other vegetables makes it an adequate meal (balance meal) 2) It is low in calorie and are often recommended as a part of weight loss programme. 3) It is very free from saturated fatty acid and cholesterol. 4) It contains lots of dietary fibres and as such act as a native laxative which can naturally get rid of constipation. 5) It is rich in notable vitamins,vitamin,A,C and K. 6) Also very rich in vital minerals,such as Iron,Calcium,Magnesium etc. 7) It has medicinal value,has been connected to Cataract preventing and is praised for preventing spots and pimples. COOKING DIRECTIONS: 1) About an hour before preparing the soup,boil the stockfish for 20mins and leave in the pot to soak with the hot water . 2) Wash,spice and boil meat till partly tender. 3) Add the soaked stockfish and washed fillet fish to the pot of meat and continue boiling,add water sparingly , because this soup need to be thick. 4) When you confirmed that the pot content is done,add sliced onion,pounded crayfish,stock cube and sliced uziza leave. 5) Pour red oil in another pot and bring to heat,add the diced okra and start frying to kick-start the drawing process and add some meat stock from time to time till you notice that the okra start to draw.This process should not take more than 5Mins to avoid over cooking the okra. 7) Now add all the fish/meat to the okra ,add pepper,stock cube and salt to taste and boil up. cool Finally add ugu leave and allow to simmer for 1 minutes and it is ready to be served. 9) Serve okra soup with Eba,semovita,fufu etc. NOTE---The tinier you cut the okra,the more it will draw. Also note that okra soup is not meant to stay long even in the freezer if you must account for freshness,nutritiousness and tastiness. If possible have plenty of meat stock stored in the freezer,fetch and steam okra and add when needed . Finally,an okra soup prepared with only icefish can equally taste good ,so dont go and break the bank because of a pot of soup .So feel free to add and subtract ingredients. Enjoy your soup !!!
