This is a spiritually powerful soup. I ate this soup for the first time in America and let me tell you that I slept soo deep and had some very vivid dreams. The way I slept after eating this soup. I've never slept that deep like that IN MY LIFE.... Nigerians call this Afang soup but I call this DREAM SOUP and BY FORCE, I'm going to learn how to make it. This soup is a healing soup.

You are the only one that really cooked correct Afang soup among every so called cook this is exactly how I prepare my afang soup 😊

[@umontekim7200]

I really appreciate how you treated the afang, chopped it and pounded it yourself.

[@etopashu5431]

We eat this in Cameroon too. We call it Eru. There's a slight difference with cooking method(we don't pound the Afang/eru leaves and we add water leaf when meat stock must have dried up but asides that every other thing is same and in cameroon this is one of best meals as well. Hard to see someone who doesnt love eru

[@catherinembi1971]

So I am watching from Joppa Maryland. But I am a Cameroonian born that loves to cook the calabar people share so many similar recipes with my culture the Bayangi people of Cameroon. Afang soup is like our Eru so similar!!!

[@mummyjoy6410]

Yes very correct sis. Thats how we cook our eru in Cameroon

[@ososeesekie]

This is by far the best Afang soup recipe on the internet !!! The no onions means you know exactly what you’re doing!!!!!!

[@jennywinny4066]

But onions add lots of flavour and test to food, even vegetable soups.

[@ososeesekie]

@@jennywinny4066 you are right but onions are not part of the traditional list of ingredients for afang soup! You can use onions but it doesn’t taste same. I’ve done it both ways and I used to wonder why my afang doesn’t taste as good as the ones I eat in cross river state! Until a grandma told me not to use onions and the result was a lot better! Same with ogbono soup! Secret from my very one grandma not to use onions in making it. But I love onions in every other meal. Except these two soups

[@jennywinny4066]

@@ososeesekie it's ok, just that I'm addicted to onion. Love it in every food

[@fiorah01]

No onions in any vegetable soup gives a bland flat vegetable soup, including afang

I was about to ask why she didn't add onions . So they don't add onions to afang, I will try it out
