  • 1kg of assorted meat and fish (beef, cow tripe, chicken, smoked fish, stockfish, etc.)
  • 1 cup of crayfish
  • 1 cup of periwinkle (optional)
  • 1 cup of palm oil
  • 2 onions
  • 3 stock cubes
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Wash and clean the Afang leaves and waterleaf thoroughly. If using fresh leaves, chop them finely, but if using frozen leaves, allow them to thaw before chopping.
  2. Season the assorted meat and fish with one chopped onion, two stock cubes, and salt to taste. Place them in a pot and cook on medium heat for about 20 minutes until tender.

  4. Add the crayfish to the pot and fry for another 5 minutes.
  5. Add the chopped Afang leaves to the pot and stir well. Allow the leaves to cook for about 5 minutes.
  6. Add the waterleaf to the pot and stir well. Cover the pot and allow to cook for another 10-15 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  7. Add the cooked meat and fish to the pot, including the stock. If using periwinkle, add them at this point.
  8. Add the remaining stock cube and salt and pepper to taste. Stir well and allow the soup to simmer for another 10 minutes.
  9. Serve hot with your choice of swallow, such as garri or fufu.
