Ofe Nsala soup is from the Eastern part of Nigeria and it is extremely easy to make. Really easy. The ingredients you also need are not a lot. Some people prefer the Ofe Nsala wth fresh catfish but I like mine with goat meat. I would say these are the popular preferences. You can do chicken, beef etc but e nor go sweet reach the goat or fresh fish Nsala. Now, you need to find Utazi leaves-thats the new bae😍 in my pot of soups.

→INGREDIENTS←
4 tsp Pepper Soup Spice
2 tsp Crayfish
1 kg Goat Meat
1/2 Sliced Onion
1 tsp Salt
2 Seasoning Cubes
2 medium slices Yam
4 Cups Water
1 tsp Fresh Habanero Pepper (Chopped)
1/2 tsp Dry Blended Pepper
Handful Utazi
→PREPARATION←
- Season goat meat with onion, seasoning cube, salt and cook till it is soft. I like it almost fall-off-the-bone. Add 2 slices of yam, cubed and allow it cook with the meat till it is soft.
- Add pepper soup spice, chopped habanero, dry blended pepper and some crayfish.
- While the meat is thill cooking, Take out the yam when soft and place in a blender. Add some water and blend till it is very smooth.
- Now add the yam paste back into the soup. The quantity you add depends on how thick or light you want the consistency of the soup to be.
- Add more water and allow the soup to cook for 15 more minutes, stirring it frequently.
- Add more crayfish and the sliced Utazi leaves to the soup and allow simmer for 5 minutes.
Thats it! Ofe Nsala Soup is ready!
I had this soup once in Nigeria. Very interesting flavours especially the Utazi leaves. Yum!

You remember it well....Very yum!
DeleteYou did well. As an igbo woman, I was looking to see if you had the main essential, so you're not new to the nsala game. It's also great with fresh fish for those who may be dieting and a good alternative to oil soups as well as it can be prepared with or without oil.

DeleteSisi yemmie, you should try Nsala with chicken(not frozen o) 'live chicken' and dried fish with correct pounded yam. The type of food that can send one to heaven. Back in the day, it was my mamas go-to-recipe before making a big request from papa. Lol.
