Thank you for this,I tried it and my spinach came out fine for the first time in Germany. My family really enjoyed it. They have been eating water vegetable all this while 😂
I usually add the stalk of all vegetables I use. I try to get out all the nutritional value I can get from my veggies. Your videos are always entertaining and it feels like watching my mom cook. Thank you for bringing us to your kitchen. Greetings from North Carolina, USA.
Wow aunty Flo, I learnt something from you today. To wilt the spinach before cooking it. I always wondered why I had very watery soup. Thanks for this trick/nugget.
Okay darling, I going to try it on Wednesday 🥳! Looks so yummy and sweet 😋 😍... Thanks for sharing with all your heart ❤️. May the Lord Bless you Flo darling 🙏🥰!!!
This looks so delicious with lots of mountains 😋. That's a lot of work prepping the vegetables, frozen spinach is my go to for large cooking. Well done Aunty Flo
Nne eh, frozen spinach all the way. But my people have been asking for leafy-spinach-only recipe since 2019 I think! 🙈😂 The obstacles too much for this soup. Chai o! Daalu. ❤
Ụmụ ọma always helping out mummy in the kitchen. Is good you put the gram equivalent for our American brothers and sisters cos they as that question a lot forgetting that they can make use of their google to translate the measurements. I want the anụ kpụrụ nku na eju ọnụ
Nne eh, lots of people still do not know about using Google to convert. I have chosen to be giving it to them than answering all the questions that will follow if I don't. ❤ That anu nkpo eh, it comes off in stripes. Nziwalu anu nkpo! 🙌😋
Waoh! Beautiful and yummy yummy. I learnt something new but I have few questions: 1. Why did you add the water you used to soak the dry meat and smoked prawn to the meats inside the stock pot because I feel that water is dirty? 2. The way you wilted that Spinach, can I also do that for other leafy vegetables? Thank you, the great chef.
1. Remember that I said to clean the dry meat and oporo VERY well before soaking. Click 👉04:28 to see how I used a brush to clean the stockfish. That's exactly how I cleaned the dry meat before soaking. I show this procedure (when cleaning stockfish, dry fish etc) in a lot of my videos hence i no longer stress it too much. That water is stock/broth, not dirty at all. And this soup can benefit from every flavour you can add to it. You can throw the water away if you still think it's dirty. Use ordinary water. 2. Like I said in the video, spinach contains LOTS of water which will make what you are cooking watery and tasteless. I can't even think of any other leafy vegetable that contains as much water as spinach right now, water leaves don't even come close. So no need to do this with other leafy vegetables. For instance, if you steam ugu like that, you will see that hardly any water comes out. You are welcome. :)
wow this is awesome I love your cooking method so much I going to try this tomorrow looks so yummy and delicious thank you for sharing this amazing video with us
Our AdjeButter children no like hard life,I have 5 so I know, but they enjoy eating o!! We love them all the same.involving them in household chores will help them later in life, then they will thank you 😊
hehehe ajebutter on top what they will eat. Kolewerk. They will just do initial squeezing of face. Mummy no dey look face ooo. If they like they can be eating takeouts when they become adults but for now, all hands must be on deck. I am somebody's child too. 😂😂😂
I will try this recipe but will modify it and not wilt the spinach down. Can’t bear to have all that nutrients go down the drain. I will use it like that, watery and all - maybe will drastically reduce the fluid/stock that I will use for the soup in the first place.
Ogom🙋♀️❤️.Odikwa ka ima ife dibia Oyibo na afum juchairim na 🦻🏻kitaa ooo! Osim gbapu ya 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️na ulo Madam Flo na Espanol na onweru ogwu ife na esogbu mu ooo😭😭😭. Biko mehepu onu uzo ama na Sleek wubataru na ogbe👏👏👏.
Lol 😂 Nene said - 1🤣🤣🤣babygirl sure is not finding it fun to pick the Spinach. I swear this soup is giving me afang vibes. So much obstacles inside 😋biko am coming for my share Aunty Flo ❤️
Nnene always flooring me with her unexpected responses. ☺😄😂 Come ooo. All soups with lots of veggies are technically the same. But the iru took this one to a whole new level. 😋😋😋
Your daughter seems to have taken you natural sense of humor o. Which one is -1 if not comedy.😂 It might be interesting for them to have a seoerate series where they narrate and make their favourite nigerian meals. Might be fun
Mbanu Sis Flo, I just got to work. Nkaa bu Ofe Nlacha, ofe ntabi aka. The obstacles are something else and I love your method and approach to this recipe. Well done Flo, see my plate ooo 🍽🍽 😀😀
This looks so yummy! I can't wait to try this. How long did you pressure cook the meat for? And if I don't have a pressure cooker, how long will it take to cook before adding it to the soup?
Without a pressure cooker cow tripe can take as much as 1 hour to cook but with my pressure cooker, once pressurized, 5 minutes max all the meats are cooked.
I will just add hot water to the spinach and squeeze it out, that way I don't over cook the veg also skip using extra pot. The idea is for the meat to cook inside the stew first b4 adding veg. Veg is the last thing that goes in. Shikena
Very true, my way too. I just blanch the Spinach and the meat has to go Into the sauce first so as to soak up soup of the sauce before the veg goes in last minute.
We all have our own ways but I always try as much as possible to share the best practices for tasty meals. I have done these using all permutations and combinations before arriving at the method that gives the best overall taste. For me, tasty meals I can savor trumps tiny nutrient losses (if any) because I can easily recover those by eating raw fruits and veggies. And I believe there are those who follow me who feel this way too. My veg was not overcooked. Pour hot water or heat for a bit in a pan, same same, heat is involved. Scientifically for me, pouring hot water is more shocking and damaging than slowly bringing the temperature up. For the order of adding the ingredients: again for me, the seasoned sauce MUST touch the vegetables (especially this tasteless spinach) VERY well. That's the only way this soup will be tasty else it tastes like cardboard to me. Adding all that meat and fish before adding the vegetables will not allow the sauce to touch the vegetables very well and you will spend more time struggling to stir it unless you have one or two pieces of meat in there. All these take at most 2 minutes on high heat (for someone who is not recording a TH-cam video) so the vegetable is not overcooked as can be seen from the green colour at the end.
Please can l use okpei inplace of iru, i don't have access to iru, Diaspora people will understand. Because I'm cooking this soup tomorrow anuty Flo, can I use okpei
Ok first, I did not fry it. I heated it up. I used a frying pan because for me, it does a better job of wilting the spinach quickly than a pot in such a way that the green colour is still intact. Second, the water we are talking about here is INSIDE the spinach and only comes out when you heat it up so even if you rinse the spinach a day before, that water will not magically leave the spinach, you MUST heat it up first.
@@FloChinyere I have never tried it too buh people I ask say they use it. I think I will stick to spinach .it tasted so so NY e in my Egusi and ogbono soup. Thanks for the recipes
That's the same way they were raving about it and I decided to try, it was a disaster. 😂 They told me it must be the species I used, that they had a great experience with it. 🤷♀️ So you can try it but not with a pot of soup ooo. Try as sauteed veggies first. That's what I did, thank God! 😂 You are welcome. :)
Looks like you are filming from Spain, quite interesting.
I really love your voice and personality. God bless you for this delicious recipe.
I can’t wait for my kids to grow and start helping me too
That time will be here before you know it. ❤

Yummy 😋 soup! I m sure African homes in the diaspora pay the highest amount of gas and electric bill because our food takes hours and hours to cook.
No way. There's pressure cooker for the tough meat and stockfish. 5 minutes they are done.
@@FloChinyere I must pressure cooker for myself asap. Thank you Flo
Yes oh even softens goat meat and speeds up the cooking time.
I WILL be so healthy praise JESUS when I live in AFRICAAAA!!

Such beauty😭
Please can l use okpei inplace of iru, i don't have access to iru, Diaspora people will understand. Because I'm cooking this soup tomorrow anuty Flo, can I use okpei
You can use a different vegetable like Kale or Cabbage Greens. No water to drain
Wow first today
Sis do you teach Nene how to cook
Hello Flo, what is the name of the hand blender, please.
Thank you aunty Flo.can Soko be prepared the same way as the spinach
Yes, it's pretty much the same procedure. Soko does not contain as much water as spinach so you can skip the part where I removed the water.
Thank you
Spinach is just 60%water mehn
From 2kg to 1kg. This one is ofe nlacha,😋😋 like the okro nlacha u once made
Too much water for real. Yes, this is great for nlacha. It's that tasty. Daalu. ❤
Please help me which palm oil to buy as well as cray fish powder. I live in India and idk where to get it from.
Please ma can I use frozen spinach the soup looks delicious 😋
Yes, you can.
Can I use dried okpie for this?
We do not have such time to waste cooking for t🎉hat many hours😂😂😂😂😂
Is there any alternative for locust beans? Good job ma
I've used slightly fermented mushrooms before and they worked quite well. Thank you.
Can I use ogiri if I don't have iru
Yummy
I can wash the vegetables in the morning and cook at evening to drained the water too. If I don't want to fry?
Ok first, I did not fry it. I heated it up. I used a frying pan because for me, it does a better job of wilting the spinach quickly than a pot in such a way that the green colour is still intact.
Second, the water we are talking about here is INSIDE the spinach and only comes out when you heat it up so even if you rinse the spinach a day before, that water will not magically leave the spinach, you MUST heat it up first.
Is like we collaborated today to make the same efo eriro 😂😂
But I just used fish and prawns
For my own without salt....
hehe for real? Telepathy at work! 🙌🙌🙌
Can I use Kale leaves in place of spinach. I reside in Canada
Due to my bad experience with kale (it was fibrous and bitter 😌), I don't recommend it. But if you've had a good experience with it, why not?
