Instructions

Trinidad. Add the chopped spinach to the chicken stock with the onion and garlic. Cook until tender. Add the coconut milk and crab meat and simmer until the crab meat is heated through. Season to taste with suit, pepper, and Pickapeppa or Tabasco sauce. Serve with Foo-Foo, if green plantains arc available. Serves 6. Note: The tender young leaves of dasheen, a starchy root vegetable, are the "callaloo" of this recipe. In Jamaica, a type of English spinach with a larger leaf is also called "callaloo," regular spinach makes an excellent substitute. Sometimes okras are added-12 small ones for soup for 6.
