👨🍳 Istruzioni
- 1
Boil the salted meat in water until tender, about 30-45 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- 2
In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the boiled salted meat, breadfruit chunks, chopped onion, minced garlic, thyme sprigs, and the whole scotch bonnet pepper (if using).
- 3
Pour in the coconut milk and add enough water to just cover the ingredients. Bring to a boil.
- 4
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 1 hour, or until the breadfruit is tender and the liquid has reduced and thickened. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- 5
Add the chopped callaloo leaves to the pot. Stir well and continue to simmer for another 15-20 minutes, or until the callaloo is cooked and wilted. The stew should be thick and oily, with the oil from the coconut milk separating.
- 6
Remove the thyme sprigs and scotch bonnet pepper before serving. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
