Ofe Owerri (Owerri Soup)

Authentic Ofe Owerri (Owerri Soup)

Experience the luxurious richness of our traditional ofe owerri, a prized delicacy from Owerri in Imo State, Eastern Nigeria. This special occasion soup is known for its incredible depth of flavor, thick consistency, and generous combination of premium proteins including assorted meat, stockfish, dried fish, and fresh fish, all simmered in a flavorful palm oil base.

What Makes It Special

Our ofe owerri is prepared the authentic Igbo way with a lavish mix of proteins - tender beef, goat meat, chicken, stockfish, dried fish, and fresh catfish or tilapia - combined with cocoyam paste for thickness, uziza leaves for aromatic spice, ground crayfish, and traditional seasonings. The result is an incredibly rich, thick soup with layers of complex flavors - savory, slightly peppery, and deeply satisfying. This is a soup fit for royalty!
