In reply to Kenneth Asenime. Use lots of banga seeds and be sure to have your banga sauce thick. I think you added so much water so it was watery from the beginning. If it is watery it only means you added too much water somehow.

By: Kenneth Asenime

Kenneth Asenime — Tue, 16 Oct 2018 21:53:30 +0000

Nice one, I tried it out but turned out watery. What could I have done wrong.

Wow! Chidi u are doing great.the beletete leaf is different from dried bitter leaf,they look alike but beletete is tasteless but has good aroma.we use both in preparing Delta Banga soup,u can also use little quantity of washed bitterleaf instead of dried one incase u like to see leaves in ur soup.Kudos Chidi

I am from Delta state. My mom does all the cooking and this is one of the best soup she does for the family. I would be getting married in few months time and dying to learn about these traditional foods. Thanks for the banga soup. I will try it and then get back to you.
