Fusion okro soup and cabbagecauliflower fufu

Fusion Okro Soup and Cabbage/Cauliflower Fufu

I was not too keen on Okro as a child and had to be forced to eat it. However it grew on me after cooking it lots of times for my brother Manny and father in law who both adored it.
The classic if you can’t beat them join them!
It soon became a favourite and was a staple for my children who loved it as babies. It also became a staple and magic bullet during my endeavour to loose the covid bulge weight. Okro and cauliflower fufu is literally a marriage made in heaven and eaten three times a week will yield great results! It is recommended for all West African Afrofusion clients. Definitely the lowest hanging fruit ( see below for more details regarding cauliflower fufu) !
