African vegetable soup Recipe (ugu leaf)
Today I prepared our traditional vegetable soup known as ugu leaf very nutritious meal that builds blood volume in the body. This soup is always easy to cook and it is very rich in vitamins, iron, calcium and some folic acid.
This leaf is a natural blood boaster when used in a right way. The presence of iron in it makes it boast blood level and it is a good source of fiber.
So back to how I prepared the soup
Ingredients
- Ugu leaf
- Waterleaf
- Fish
- Meat
- Crayfish
- Periwinkle
- Onion
- Palm oil
- Seasoning cubes
- Salt to taste
- Pepper
- Snail
- Stockfish
Steps
Washed the ugu leaf very clean free from sand and set it aside ready to be chopped.
I washed and cut water leaf to this size
Washed dry smoked fish clean and free from sand
I washed all my ingredients that needed to be seasoned, periwinkle, meat, snail, stockfish together.
I steamed all my ingredients together then added crayfish and palm oil and cover the pot for some minutes to cook.
I added waterleaf and cover the pot, allowed it to cook for some minutes.
I added the ugu leaf and turned, added oil again and some seasoning cubes to taste then allowed it to cook for 2 minutes then put your pot down.
You can eat it with any swallow of your choice or you use it to eat white rice, it is very nutritious.
I believe you will like to give it a try
Vegetable soup is one of a kind. It is not just delicious but also nutritional. I really love eating it at home and I love combining it too with rice. You prepared this soup carefully and wonderfully. When we were little, we didn't really like the soup like we did Afang, but mom told us about the benefits of the soup. And not long i came to love the food and i have been eating ever since.
