Cow foot nkwobi

The first step is parboiling the meat with some ingredients; onions, 2 cubes of stock cubes and salt will be enough.

Then allow cooking for another fifty to sixty minutes until the meat is completely soft.

This is necessary because nkwobi, as well as Nigerian pepper soup, is basically made with very soft meats, just so it is not hard to chew.

 How To Make Nkwobi

Dissolve the potash in about 250ml (one cup) of water and filter about half a cup into the pot, you will learn a little bit about this from the video below.

You will know exactly how this is done, although most Nigerians are familiar with this technique.

Add about half a cup of palm oil into the pot, stir to obtain a thick yellow paste (ncha) and you are just a few steps away from having a very delicious nkwobi.

Once you have the “ncha” add the ugba, a pinch of salt, a stock cube and [utazi leaves, ehu, and peppers] (all pounded together).

Also, add two spoons of ground crayfish, then stir very well before adding the meat.
