Ingredients:
- 15 okra (soft tips , cut into 1 inch pieces )
- 1 pimentos (chopped)
- 1/4 lb salted pork tail (adding pig tail is optional. boil out salt 30 mins in water until tender and cut in to 1inch pieces)
Directions:
- 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.
- Taste and season with salt & pepper if necessary.
- When the callaloo is done the leaves and okras should be tender and there should be enough liquid to blend the ingredients. If not add a little warm water to bring to a soup consistency.
- 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.
- Store in a clean pot with pork tails and reheat before serving.
- Serve with rice, stewed Caribbean chicken, potato salad, boiled provisions, cole slaw, pigeon peas and macaroni pie.
