Create traditional Nigerian delicacies with Paradise Bay Okazi Leaves, a beloved ingredient in Afang and Egusi soups. Known for their earthy flavour and slightly chewy texture, these dried leaves are essential in authentic West African cooking. They add depth, aroma, and a touch of bitterness that balances rich soups beautifully.
Packed with fibre, vitamins, and antioxidants, Okazi leaves (also known as Afang) promote digestive health and overall wellbeing. Their distinctive taste complements meat, fish, and vegetable dishes, enhancing flavour and authenticity.
Before cooking, soak the dried leaves in warm water for a few minutes to soften them. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to preserve freshness. Ideal for traditional stews and festive meals.
