Isi ewu
Isi ewu is a traditional Igbo dish that is made with a goat's head.
It is a soup similar to spicy cow feet except that isi ewu is made from the head of a goat rather than cow feet. Some restaurants cook the whole head at once, others reduce the amount of water used and cut the head into pieces.
Ingredients
A goat head, calabash nutmeg, onion, potash, palm oil, utazi leaves, and ụgba are required to cook Isi Ewu soupPreparation
The meat is boiled until tender inside a pot; a pressure cooker is mostly used due to the toughness of goat meat.Grated onion, seasoning, pepper and salt are added to thickened palm oil made from adding a mixture of sieved potash and water to palm oil in another pot entirely.
The goat head, brain separate, calabash nutmeg, ugba are also added to the thickened palm oil after some minutes.
Isi Ewu is served with sliced onions and utazi leaves when done.
