  3. 3
    Add your pieces of beef in a pot and season with salt and seasoning cube(s). Add water to the level of the beef then add the pieces of pumpkin to bring to a boil until soft.
  4. 4
    When the beef is cooked thoroughly, set aside and fry. This step is optional though. 
  5. 5
    After frying, add back into your pot containing the beef stock and pieces of pumpkin. Proceed to mash the pumpkin to get it incorporated into the beef stock. Alternatively, you can decide to mash some and leave some in tiny bits. Allow to cook on low heat till the stock starts to bubble to the top.

    Add your groundnut paste and allow to simmer for about 3 minutes or till the paste is dissolved into the soup.

    Add your dawadawa and smoked fish then stir to combine and allow to simmer for a couple of minutes.

  11. 11

  • You can also add other various herbs & spices of choice like Fresh ginger, garlic, curry cumin seeds, coriander seeds, oregano, rosemary and so on.
