This is the leaf.. you will first of all spread it under the sun for some minutes and allow it to dry small

Then after some minutes you will unsun it and put it inside a basin and squeeze it with water, then you will do it several times until the bitterness is reduced then you will soak it with water so that it won't change taste and colour

This is the palm fruit.. then after cooking it together with the cocoyam.. you will first of all pound the palm fruit and sieve out the water and put it on to the fire before pounding the cocoyam

Thats the palm fruit oil and water ontop of the fire.., then you pile the cooked cocoyam and pound it, but before you add it to the pot you will make sure that the water is well boiled
