I must cook this oo!!

Native Soup (Rivers State)

Ingredients:
Cat fish (cut n gutted)
Goat meat
Prawns/Shrimps
Ngolo
Periwinkle (isam)
Snail
Stockfish
Crayfish (handful)
Achi (thickner)
Hot Peppers
Onions
Uziza leaves
Palm oil
Knorr Cubes
Salt

Directions:
To wash the catfish, add some hot water to a big basin and then drop the fish in for like 30 seconds (don't use boiling water else you'll cook the fish). After 30seconds of being in hot water, remove the fish and the scrape the body of the fish to remove the slime. Wash well and put in the pot you'll cook the soup with. 

To clean the snails, make sure there aren't any shells hidden anywhere so you won't get cut while cleaning it. Clean the snail with lime to remove the slime (haha, I just rhymed). I added half a cup of freshly squeezed lime juice to the snails and rubbed together. That was easier than cutting the lime in half and rubbing on the snail one at a time. Set the cleaned snail aside.

Remove the prawns/shrimps by removing the head, shells and veins. For the ngolo (I don't know the English name), ask the sellers to show you how to clean it 'cos I can't explain the process here. Wash the periwinkle. Set all of them aside.

Blend the onions and peppers together and set aside.

Wash the goat meat and add a pressure pot. Wash the stock fish and add to the same pot. Add the cleaned snail to the pot also. Add two-thirds of the blended pepper n onions to the pot. Season with salt and knorr and pressure cook for 10minutes. Set aside.

Steam the fish with the remaining blended pepper, knorr and salt for like 5minutes. Remove the steamed fish from the pot and pour the cooked meat into the fish stock. Blend the crayfish and add to the pot and allow it boil.

Add 2 cooking spoons of palm oil and allow boil for 10minutes. Then add the shrimps, isam and ngolo. Cover the pot and boil another 5minutes.

Add the achi 1 tablespoon at a time so you don't over thicken the soup. Allow everything to boil for 5minutes then cut up the uziza leaves and add. Boil for 3-5minutes and your soup is ready to be served.

Enjoy with garri, semolina, wheat etc.
