Steps

1hour

1

Start by soaking your stockfish for around an hour. After that peel and cook your coco yam until it is very soft; then pound it in a mortar until the paste comes out smooth.
2

Wash the meat or chicken very well before putting it in a pot; season it to your taste, add a little water and cook till almost soft and edible. Add the stockfish, dry fish. Wash your cat fish with ACV to kill any form of bacteria.
3

When you have confirmed that your meat is done, you can add your washed cat fish and leave to cook for 4 minutes. Then you can add pepper, crayfish and palm oil.
4

After about 2 minutes, add coco yam in bits and leave to dissolve. Put shredded leaves, ogili and salt to taste, stir and then leave to simmer for about 5 minutes.
5

Bring down your pot of nutritious Ofe Owerri because it is ready for consumption. I prefer bulgur wheat as swallow... Enjoy!
