👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Marinate the chicken pieces with lemon juice, salt, pepper, cumin, and crushed pau de pimenta for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the palm oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until softened and translucent, about 8-10 minutes.

Add the minced garlic and chopped chili peppers to the pot and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Add the marinated chicken pieces to the pot and brown them on all sides. This step is crucial for developing flavor.

Stir in the chopped tomatoes, okra, diced eggplants, chopped spinach, chopped collard greens, and diced breadfruit. Mix well to combine.

Add enough water or chicken broth to almost cover the ingredients. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook slowly for at least 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the chicken is very tender and the vegetables have broken down.
💡 專業提示: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. If the stew becomes too dry, add a little more water or broth. - 7
In the last 30 minutes of cooking, stir in the chopped mesquito leaves (or basil).

If a thicker consistency is desired, stir in the manioc flour mixture and cook for another 5-10 minutes until the sauce has thickened.

Serve hot, traditionally accompanied by rice, funge (cassava or cornmeal porridge), or boiled breadfruit.
💡 專業提示
- ✓The key to a good Calulu is slow cooking, allowing the flavors to meld and the ingredients to become tender.
- ✓If you cannot find pau de pimenta, use a pinch of ground allspice.
- ✓Palm oil is essential for the authentic flavor and color of Calulu. If unavailable, a mix of peanut oil and a pinch of paprika can be a substitute, but the flavor will differ.
- ✓The variety of greens used can be adapted based on availability. Other options include amaranth leaves or cassava leaves.
