A hearty Niger-Delta favourite — tender goat meat pepper soup cooked with chunky yam and aromatic native spices.

Ukodo is the ultimate comfort food from the South-South region of Nigeria: peppery goat meat soup simmered with bite-sized yam chunks, smoky dried fish and fragrant native spices. The yam soaks up the spiced broth while the goat meat becomes fall-apart tender. Serve it piping hot for family gatherings, rainy evenings or anytime you crave something deeply satisfying.
