25 Fingers of Okro (Chopped)
2 Large Tomatoes
Half Red bell pepper
3 Yellow peppers
¼ bulb of Onion
1.5 tablespoons of blended pepper soup spices
½ cup of crayfish pieces
¼ cup of crayfish head
Seasoning Cubes
1 teaspoon of dry pepper
Instructions
- Wash, season and boil your beef in a pot of water till it becomes semi-soft. Add more water.
- Now wash and add the snails to the semi-boiled beef so it can also get soft with it.
- Pour the ground pepper soup spices into the pot and reduce the heat to medium heat.
- Wash your crayfish pieces and crayfish head and separate both of them into two bowls.
- Blend your tomatoes, pepper, and crayfish head with a quarter cup of water.
- Pour the blended tomato, pepper and crayfish into the pot of meat and snails and stir in. At this point, add the crayfish pieces.
- Add your chopped okro, stir for a minute and immediately take it off the fire so the okro is not overcooked. There would be just enough heat in the pot to steam the okro.
