According to her;

I cook the cocoyam till tender.
Season the beef, shaki, snails, kpomo, stock fish with seasoning cubes and salt and cover to cook.
Add water after 10 minutes and allow to cook till tender.
Check and pound the cocoyam if its soft already.
If the chewables are tender enough, add palm oil, pepper and crayfish.
Cook till the cocoyam dissolves.
Check your seasoning and salt and adjust if need be.
Add in washed dry fish.
Add in Okazi leaves.
Add in Ugu leaves.
Cook for 5 minutes considering Okazi is a tough vegetable.
Serve and enjoy your soup with eba, pounded yam, akpu, semo, etc.
