Instructions to make Akwukworo Oho (Ora soup):
- Wash the meat and place in an empty pot on a burner, allowing it to stew in its juice.
- When the juice dries up, add water to level with the meat and add salt, maggi and pepper

- While waiting for the meat to tenderize, wash and put the cocoyam to boil
- When the meat is tender, remove the stock fish from the water and add to the pot. Add the roast fish also, and allow to boil.
- The cocoyam is ready when a slight prod with a fork pierces its skin. Bring it down from the burner then, and proceed to remove the brown epicarp. Try not to burn yourself, as this has to be done while it's still hot. You can have a bowl of cold water close by to cool your fingers while you do this.
- Place the peeled cocoyam in a motar and pound, or, if you have a food processor, blend.
- When the cocoyam is properly pounded or blended, scoop it into a bowl, add the oil and mix properly
- Remove the fish from the pot to avoid smashing while you stir the soup.
- Ensure that the stock in the pot is approximately two cups. If it isn't, please, bring it up by adding more water. Note that if you add more water, you should let it boil before proceeding to the next step.
- Scoop the cocoyam into the pot in dollops with a table spoon. Cover the pot and let boil until the cocoyam is almost dissolved.
- While it boils, pluck and shred the ora leaves with your fingers. (Do not cut with a knife, please). Pluck the uziza leaves too and shred with a knife.
- When the cocoyam dollops are almost dissolved in the pot, stir the soup and add crayfish and ogiri. Then, adjust for taste (salt and pepper) and thickness.
