Hello beauties, howdy and hope your week is going g well. So I have been busy, did I tell u IFE had stuffy nose which didn't allow him to sleep or feed well and it has lasted over 2-3weeks now. Nothing is working. We have tried steam method, nasal drop and nebulizing and nothing seem to work. But I know with God all things are possible so I am resulting to prayer. After all it's the master key. So back to this deliciousness. True true, I didn't plan to post this here. It was supposed to be on Instagram but I thought of you my ride or die readers and decided to bring it here too. So follow me on Instagram

WHAT I USED:
Okro
Beef
Cow head
Kanda/ pomor
1 full Titus iced fish
Stockfish/oporoko
Islam/periwinkle
Seasoning
Salt
Fresh and dry pepper
Crayfish
Onions
Palm oil or tumeric powder
HOW TO PREPARE:
First of all wash all the washables with salt water. You know our food handlers are careless and dirty at times.
Chop the okro
Slice the pepper
Use mortar to pound some crayfish and onion
Pre boil your cow head cause it can be strong, you don't want it to be un chewable. I used pressure cooker, if you don't have use the normal everyday pot.
Steam your beef, pomor, oporoko together.
Add onions, dry pepper and seasoning, mix together. No salt yet.
Cook till done, add your Titus fish both smoked and iced then add little salt and cook for about 1-2minutes
In a separate pot, allow to dry, add little palm oil when it's a little bit hot add your pounded onion mix and sliced red peppers.
Stir together for about a minute and add your chopped okro
Stir together for 3 minutes and add your steamed meat combo
Cook for 5 minutes, add your periwinkles. Taste for salt and if the pepper is to your preference.
Cook for about 1-2 minutes and its ready for warking.
I didn't add vegetable cause I just wanted that crunchy okro feel but you can add green, ugu, bitter leaf or whatever you like and you mustn't use everything that I used, you can reduce hand, don't use some things or use more. Na your money and appetite go determine wetin you want
Serve with akidi, semi, garri, foofoo, pounded yam and a chilled drink. Thank me later. I hope you enjoy making this as I did. I love you for reading and till my next post XOXO
