Let's go to the kitchen dudes......
This soup is popularly called by the yoruba tribe in Nigeria as Ewedu soup and am proud to be part of them. The Ewedu is a green leafy edible vegetable which is often prepared into a delicious slimy soup. In English, it is known fully as Jute Mallow or Jew's mallow. Jute leaves are very rich in minerals, vitamins and anti-oxidants.
This soup is very good for both infants and adults, especially pregnant women for easy digestion of food and ease delivery.
Oh... Enough of explanation and let's go to the kitchen.........
Ingredients needed
Ewedu plant ( just plant)
