- While the meat is cooking, heat your oil in a pan; add the other onion and fry for 3 minutes. After about 3 minutes, turn off the heat and add your ground ogbono and crayfish; mix properly and set aside.
- Check your meat, if the water is almost dried up, add one litre of water and cook till the meat is done. When the meat is done, add your fish and blended chillies; cover and cook till the fish is done (about 6-10 minutes).
- When the fish is done, carefully take each piece out and keep aside to prevent them from scattering. Now add your ogbono mixture to the meat and cook for five minutes or till thickened. Once thickened, add your okro and cook for about 3 minutes.
