Welcome to Chama's kitchen. Today we are preparing water leaf soup.

In the pot, we have our protein: sawfish and snail.

Boil the palm oil until it shimmers, as this soup needs a lot of oil.

Pour in the water and stir well.

Add the water leaf, pepper, and crayfish into the pot.

Pour in the boiled protein and stir well.

Do not add extra water; the water leaf will release its own water during cooking.

Allow the soup to cook until ready.
