Introduction
In my post today I will be showing you how I prepared my draw soup (Okro & okpono). Okro soup is very easy to prepare and with less cost, I cooked it frequently especially when I'm financially down, as it will not cost me to break my bank account.
Firstly, I will start by putting down all the ingredients I used in preparing my okro soup below.

There are two different methods of preparing okro soup, the frying method and the traditional method. It was the traditional method I used in cooking mine.
I started by washing my cow skin, Stockfish and dried fish into the pot, seasoned it with stock cube, fresh pepper, onions and salt then cooked it for about 5 -7minutes for the cow skin (ikpa) to tender.

While the meat was on fire, I pounded the crayfish and set it aside, then I chop the okro into the mortal and pounded it few hands, without letting it to draw well.
I also sliced the floated pumpkin leaves and ozuza leaves and set aside too.
