Preparation:::
Step 1: The first step is to prepare the soup stock.
Soak the Stock fish in hot water for 10 mins and rinse with cold water. Shred it with your fingers and set aside. Place the chunks of beef in a medium sized pot, add the seasoning (crushed), salt to taste and water. Cook for about 20minutes till tender. Add the shredded stock fish and leave to cook for another 10 mins. Set this aside.

Step 2: In an empty pot, pour in the palm oil and add the ground ogbono. On medium heat, start to stir the mixture till the ogbono added to it dissolves. This should take about 10 minutes. Once it dissolves, pour in the meat and fish stock, add the crayfish and ogiri, stir and leave to cook for about 15 mins till it thickens and starts to draw.

Step 3: At this point, add the grated okra and chopped pumpkin leaves, stir and leave to cook for about 5-7minutes.

Step 4: Turn off the burner and serve with your favorite swallow .
