Ingredients Cocoyam leaves/taro leaves (kontomire) Turkey berries (kwahu nsusua) Seasoned with fish or meat. It is frequently consumed among people of the Akan ethnic group (locally known as Akantii or Akanni\'s people), particularly the Ashantis.

Ingredients:


A mess of cocoyam leaves (kontomire)


1 cup turkey berries (kwahu nsusua)


1 medium onion


2–3 green chilies or scotch bonnet peppers (to taste)


2 medium-sized tomatoes


1 thumb-size ginger


2 cloves of garlic


1 smoked fish or any meat of choice (goat, snails or dry fish)


1 seasoning cube (optional)


Salt to taste


Palm oil



Preparation:


1. Wash and Boil the Greens

Wash the cocoyam leaves and turkey berries very well. Put them into a pot, and boil in a little water, with green pepper and a small onion, until tender, which will take about ten minutes. Set aside to cool.



2. Blend the Vegetables

Grind cooked greens, turkey berry, onion and pepper to a smooth paste. Set aside.



3. Cook the Protein

In a separate pot, season your meat or fish of preference with salt, ginger, garlic, and onions. Cook until tender.



4. Add the Blended Mixture

Add the blended green content in the pot of meat and boil for 10–15 minutes. Stir in tomatoes( ground or chopped), seasoning cube and salt to taste.



5. Add Palm Oil and Simmer

Let it flavor and color the soup with palm oil, if you like. Let it simmer gently for another 10 minutes.




Serve steaming hot with fufu, rice balls, or yam. Abunubunu is packed with iron, vitamins, and antioxidants; tasty and good for you!
