Na only Ogbono soup you sabi cook? What of Egusi soup?

Ogbono Soup

Ingredients:
~Salt
~Okra-some people add chopped okra for extra drawings of the soup (I am not among o...)
~Peppers, Chile (your choice) Minced
~Palm Oil or Vegetable oil (I like Olive oil) You can use 3 Red bell peppers(Tatashe)-minced if you prefer veggie oil for coloration.
~Ground Ogbono 1-1/2 cup (Depending on the size of soup you want)
~1 Large Onion-red, green, white, blue your choice Please always chopped your onions in big shape, it bring out sweet aroma! (1-2inch)
~Dried grey fish-or fresh shrimp. (when using fresh shrimps in any of your cooking, it should always be the last ingredient. cook it for only 5 min...So that it will feel soft/tender when eating, you will always feel the liquid in your mouth!)
~Meats(assorted----Stock fish--Ekporoko, dried fish--cat fish or smoked-wash it with lime/lemon in hot water), Beef, goat, Cow skin--Kpomo, bush-meat   chicken--plz remove the back/fat except if its African hen )
~Greens--Spinach, turnip greens, Mustard green-for your voice if you sing   ugwu, Igbo, bitter/water-leaves (I don't bitterleaves in my Ogbono) put a slight amount of your choice of greens!
~Fresh tomatoes (optional)

Preparation:
The Worldly Way  :

5. Take your cooking spoon to take out a spoonful of the hot soup into your fried ogbono, smash it with the back of the spoon until smooth/tender. Pour it   into the soup. Stir gently so the the fish will not break. Cook for 20 min.
6. Add the rest of the meats, cook for 15-20 min.

8. Add the okra(optional, cook for 1min), your choice of green, fresh shrimp(instruction above). Cook for only 3-5 min oh...Your greens should not be cooked completely. Dinner Ready....
