Ingredients

• 8 medium-sized corms cocoyam, washed
• 1 bunch ora leaves, torn into small pieces and rinsed
• Uziza leaves, washed and minced
• Shaki (cow tripe)

• Bouillon cubes
• 3 cooking spoons red palm oil
• 1 ogiri Igbo
• Assorted meat

Procedure

1. Boil the cocoyams until soft. Peel them, and use a mortar and pestle to pound them to a smooth paste.

3. Add the beef and stock cubes and continue cooking until well done.

Notes, tips, and variations

• Tearing the ora leaves prevents the vegetables from becoming darker in color, as they would when sliced with a knife.
