Firstly I visited the local market to get all the ingredients which includes;
The Green leaf or African spinach
The locust beans
Palm Oil
Meat
Red bell pepper, Onions and Seasoning to taste.
Wash the meat, add seasoning and salt and boil for 20-30 minutes
Rinse and sliced the Green leaf (vegetable), then boil for 3-4 mins this is done to soften the vegetable.
Blend or grind the Red bell pepper, slice the onions and unwrapped the seasoning (Maggi)
Place the pot on medium heat, and add the Palm Oil, heat this for about 4 minutes and don't allow the Palm Oil to bleach. Add the Onions follow by the locust beans (Iru) and allow it to fry for about 2 minutes.
Add the blended Red bell pepper and stir to mix with fired onions and locust beans, cook for about 4 minutes on a low heat.
Add the boiled Meat and seasoning pinch of salt to taste, allow it to cook for 8 minutes. Strain and squeeze out excess water from the boiled Green leaf (vegetable) add the vegetable and make sure you stire very well. Cook on a medium
