Editan soup recipe is a Nigerian vegetable-based soup made with editan leaf, water leaves, and assorted meat; editan soup is tasty, rich and it is commonly served with semolina, eba, fufu or with pounded yam.

There is more than one variety of editan leaf with varying degrees of bitterness hence; the best way to wash editan leaves to get rid of the bitter taste is to wash severally until the greenish liquid turns clear just like bitter leaf. However, the fastest way to wash editan is drop a little edible potash in a pot, then add the leaves to it and boil for 5 minutes; by boiling these leaves in potash water, the bitter taste is removed without much waste of time.
