Miyan Karkashi in a suace pan, and preparation ingredients: cow meat, smoked dried fish, dry cayenne pepper, stock cubes, salt, and Karkashi. Karkashi is a type of leafy vegetable, the leaf itself can be pounded for preparation or the powdered form can be used instead. To prepare the soup, first, the meat is seasoned with salt, stock cubes and dry cayenne pepper (ground) and steamed in a suace pan for about 10 minutes. The fish is added with ground fresh pepper (scotch bonnet pepper) and left to boil with the meat for 5 minutes. The powdered form of the Karkashi is added gradually with a pinch of potash ('Kanwa'), and the mixture is whisked to increase the viscosity in the soup.
