    Hi Stella, thank you so much for your video! I made this soup for my husband and he loved it. My husband is from Ghana and my parents are from Surinam (South America) so I did not learn how to cook food from Ghana. I'am going to try more of your recipes! Greetings from the Netherlands

      I first had okra soup while in the Bahamas. It is prepared totally different, with different ingredients,and different color. No fish at all. That looks good too. The lady who used to make it has passed away and her kids did not take on making it. So sad.

    This is over 2 years ago since you shot this but I'm loving it.
    Humble family you have. Nothing whatsoever wrong with that.
    God bless Mama Vida, Sister Priscilla and yourself of course.
    Home sweet home.
    We mustn't forget about our humble beginnings.
    Shame on those who shun their Motherland Ghana because they are no longer living there and are abroad.
    You're a Black, African and from one of the African state.
    White man will not see you as white, nor deals with you as a another human; he/she will always refer to you as Black or African.
    Be proud of your heritage and educate your brothers/sisters to be proud of what God has made them to be, individuals, independent and self discipline.
    Thank you Stella.
    Sorry, I do get upset when people you know are Ghanaians rubbish Ghana.
    Ghana is a peaceful country if only we can bring greed, bribery, stealing and corruption to zero degree, we can be one of the best countries in the world.
    We need the strong arm of the law and discipline in Ghana.
    Too much selfishness compounds greed and stealing.
    One person wants wealth all for himself and his family.
    Shalom.

    Looks amazing but I have to say the late Dr Sebi was right that 90% of African cuisine is not as healthy as it could be because it’s mostly fat along with ‘blood and starch.’ That said I’ll probably make a version of this because it still looks tasty. Thanks!

That little girl is pretty strong, you African girls r really strong to churn that banku. Marvelous girls.... And I had okro soup many times, it never gets boring. So good for tummy and nerves. But reduce the oil a bit
