Preparation of Seafood Okra Soup
- Clean the fish, then cut them into sizeable pieces,
- Shell and de-vein the shrimps.
- Hand cut or grate the okra.
- Chop the peppers. I prefer chopping, so they are still visible in the soup. You can blend or pound them in the mortar.
- Chop the spinach.
- Dice the onions.
- Cook the beef with the stock cubes and half of the diced onions.
- When done, remove the beef and add the fish. Cook for 5 minutes, at most 7 minutes, so it does not disintegrate, then gently take them out.
- Add the shrimps and cook for 5 minutes and take them out.
- Add the red palm oil; once it heats up, it adds the remaining onions, fry for a bit.
- Add the okra and fry till it heats up all over.
- Start adding the stock bit by bit and stir very well to activate the elasticity of the okra.
- When all the stock has been added, add the peppers and the spinach—cover and cook for 1-minute maximum.
- Add the fish and shrimps, add salt if necessary, and stir l thoroughly.
