Yesterday being a public holiday. I was at home. I was surfing the internet and came across "Nigerian seafood pepper soup". I planned to give it a try someday.
Today the rain was heavy in the morning. It is cold and wet over here in Port Harcourt. The seafood market isn't that far from my house so I went to get some fish🦈,shrimps 🦐 and snails🐌 . At the market i was amazed that these things are not that expensive so i bought the what i needed. Everything not even up to €20
Fish
Snails
When i got home. I got my ingredients ready.
- Onion bulb
- Salt
- Tablespoon of grounded pepper
- Cameroon 🇨🇲 pepper
- Seasoning
- Dry Grounded crayfish
- Tablespoons of basil leave
- Medium size Salmon🦈. You can use catfish or tilapia
- Fresh washed shrimps
- Ripe plantain
Preparation
I cleaned the fresh shrimps, remove the shell and veins-the black line on the backbone. Then set aside.
Precooked the snails in salted water for 10 minutes and set aside.
Washed the fish thoroughly and cut into smaller sizes.
I pealed the ripe plantain and cut into smaller sizes to.
Now to prepare the seafood pepper soup
Place the fish pieces into a pot, add enough water to slightly cover the fish, add onions, pepper, seasoning and salt to taste. Parboil for 20minutes.
Then I added a little water, added the boiled snails/periwinkles, cleaned shrimps ground or whole crayfish and the ground pepper soup spices, mix gently and cook until all the seafood are done cooking +takes about 25mins more or less+
When it was 10mins, i added the ripe plantain, added little water and stirred.
