What Makes Nigerian Ukazi Soup Special?
Ukazi Soup stands out because of its main ingredient – the Ukazi (Okazi) leaves. These dark green, slightly tough leaves are rich in fiber and give the soup its signature texture. While Ukazi leaves are not as soft as spinach or ugu, they add a delightful chewiness that makes every spoonful satisfying.
Traditionally, Ukazi Soup is cooked with a combination of:
- Palm oil (for richness and color)
- Ground egusi or achi as thickener
- Assorted meats (goat meat, beef, cow tripe, or kpomo)
- Stockfish and dry fish (for depth of flavor)
- Crayfish and seasoning
- Ukazi leaves (finely shredded)
- Optional periwinkle for that authentic village touch
The result is a wholesome, deeply flavored soup that pairs beautifully with swallows like garri (eba), pounded yam, fufu, or semovita.
