Ewedu is a traditional Nigerian soup made from jute leaves, which are blended to create a slimy consistency. It is typically served with a flavorful stew and enjoyed with a starchy side like amala or pounded yam.

Plain okra soup, on the other hand, is a simple yet delicious Nigerian dish made with sliced okra, cooked in a broth with meat or fish, tomatoes, onions, and traditional spices. It has a slightly slimy texture from the okra, which acts as a natural thickener for the soup. Plain okra soup is often served with rice or fufu for a satisfying meal.
