Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef and bone
  • 1 cleaned cow-foot and pig’s foot
  • 1 large diced onion
  • Potato and yams, cubed
  • 6 cups water
  • 4 fresh tomatoes
  • 1 small tin tomatoes
  • Pepper to taste
  • Salt to taste
  • Herbs

Directions

  1. Chop all the meat and bone, pig’s foot, cow’s foot, and put into a saucepan of water. Simmer gently until the meat is tender.
  2. Add salt to taste, herbs, onion, and pepper to taste. Continue to simmer until the volume is reduced.
  3. Add cubed yam or potatoes and cook until soft.
  4. Serve hot.
  5. To make fish pepper soup, use fish instead of meat and feet. This takes a shorter time to cook so the fish is added last as it becomes tender quickly.
