CALLALOO (REAL TRINI STYLE)...CARIBBEAN
This is the real callaloo the way it's made in Trinidad. This callaloo is not considered a soup but rather a side dish used with the Sunday lunch. If you can get the real ingredients wherever you are you are going to really ENJOY this dish. Serve on rice, boiled provisions, macaroni pie, potato salad....Caribbean foods are best for this dish. All ingredients can be prepped before and stored in the refrigerator at least two days before.

Steps:
- Separate leaves from stems. Thoroughly wash leaves and strip the stems. Tear leaves apart with hands into smaller pieces. Chop stems into about 2 inches length.
- Add all the ingredients into a medium pot over medium heat. Bring to a boil and then allow to simmer for 20 mins or until the okra seeds turn pink.

- Remove from heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Remove the pork tails before blending.
- Using a hand blender, blend the callaloo until all the ingredients are pureed.

CALLALOO (TRINIDAD)
Substitute chard or kale and spinach if you don't have access to a West Indian market and can't access the calalloo leaves (taro leaves). This is a trademark of Trinidad where crab and callaloo is the national dish. Served with rice, or macaroni pie, coo-coo or a selection of local root vegetables. Trini's have this iron rich soup at least once a week, usually on a Sunday. Can be made in advance and freezes well.

Steps:
- Put salted pork pieces in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Drain off this water. Repeat this process to draw off the excess salt from the salted meat.
- Heat the oil in a large pot and add the onion, garlic, celery and fresh herbs. Sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add okras, pumpkin and dasheen leaves and sauté for another minute or so. Add the coconut milk and stock or water, crab and hot pepper.
- Keep an eye on that hot pepper use one that is not bruised. You DO NOT want that pepper to burst while cooking. The heat from the burst pepper will overpower the other flavours.
- Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook uncovered for about 35 minutes.
- Taste and add salt if needed.
- Remove hot pepper and crab or meat, and swizzle the callaloo, or put in a blender or you can use an immersion type blender, and beat until smooth. Return the crab or meat pieces to the soup. Add the cooking margarine or butter. Simmer for 5 more minutes. Stir well.
- Serve hot as a soup on it's own or as a side dish.

CALLALOO-TRINI STYLE
Well I was browsing the website and I noticed no recipe for this dish so I just had to put up one. Trying to work out this recipe I have seen my family make without much effort so I hope I get all the ingredients right. In Trinidad we mostly make eat this as a side dish but some people would categorize this as a soup so you could add meat (crab or small chunks of beef). In Trinidad we like things spicy so pepper is a must for me :) but it's optional
