Affang soup is a vegetable soup that originates from the Ibibio people of Akwa Ibom state in the South south Nigeria.
It one of the favourite and most popular soup in Nigeria but should not be confused with the Okazi soup of the Abia people.
Growing up, whenever this soup was to be prepared, I usually just wanna disappear cause a lot of work goes into the preparation but now I make this soup effortlessly and with a big grin on my face..
I love mine with Semo or wheat but my hubby loves his with pounded yam...
Enjoy!

Steps

60mins

1

I like to pre all the ingredients down and ready.before I get into the business of cooking the soup...
So do just that, because it makes everything look easy and you cook quicker too.
Pound pepper and crayfish.
cut and wash periwinkles and soak in salted water. (this keeps it fresh.)
2

Spice up the goat meat (,I love cooking my soupsbwith goat meats, cause it extra flavoured and tastier too.) with onions, chopped.garlic, some shallot, black pepper, 1 stock cube, salt.
BOil all the meat together, don't forget to add the.Ponmo
3

Add the washed stockfish allow to cook for 5 mins...(don't allow the meat to dry out its stock completely)
4

Add the water leaves, Dried Fish and Palm oil,
once.it starts to boil, add the shelled periwinkles and little salt
5

Add the Pounded Affang Leaves...
Throw in the Dried.Shrimps, Fresh pepper and give a good stir.
(if the soup is too thick,,you.May add.some of the meat stock or plain water)
Add the last 1 stock cube and leave it to simmer for about 3 mins..
6

Lastly, my mom taught me to add the crayfish lastly and give it a final stir and....The delicious.Pot Afere Affang is ready to eat...
You can enjoy with Semo, Fufu, pounded Yam or Garri, Plantain swallow,.Samvita or even Amala...
this soup is super rich.and very healthy too.
