ZOMI INFUSED OKRO SOUP RECIPE

Zomi is basically spiced Palm oil which is popular in Ghana and Togo.

Just the same way as Olive oil has its grade in quality and taste so does Palm oil. The best way to identify the best Zomi is by placing it in a cold environment and it shouldn’t solidify. It’s creamy and can be enjoyed on its own.

In Ghana the best Red Red (Beans and Palm oil) seller will use Zomi and if you’re lucky a portion of the settled bottom part of the oil (which is packed with natural flavours)

For this recipe I used my pre chopped and frozen Okra and in place of GBOMA (Garden Egg leaves) I substituted it with Kale.

It’s important you buy your Zomi from a sustainable source where Palm nut trees are replanted.
