Description:

Okra, enjoyed by most globally! Grilled , fried , roasted , mashed you name it. Most might shy away from the texture and consistency with this soup but you will be pleasantly surprised. In Cameroon and other west African countries it is often served with some form of starchy dough. Fufu corn is ideal for this dish but feel free to enjoy it however you want.
