For the Bova corba, start with slow-cooked chicken, simmering it until the meat is falling off the bone.

Remove the chicken and use the broth to cook an array of vegetables including carrots, potatoes, onions, and bell peppers.

Add okra to the soup for unique texture and flavor.

Gradually add a mixture of flour and egg yolk to the soup while stirring constantly to achieve a creamy thickness.

Finish the soup with a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
