Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet or pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until they are soft and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. Add the diced tomato and scotch bonnet pepper to the skillet, stirring well to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.

  3. Add the callaloo leaves to the skillet, stirring occasionally to combine with the other ingredients. Cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the callaloo to wilt and reduce in volume.

  4. Once the callaloo has wilted, add the fresh spinach to the skillet. Gently fold the spinach into the mixture, allowing it to cook down and combine with the callaloo.

  5. Season the greens with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting as needed. Squeeze the lime juice over the sautéed greens, stirring well to incorporate the flavors.

  6. Continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the spinach has wilted and the flavors have melded together. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

  7. Remove the skillet from heat and serve the Sautéed Callaloo And Spinach warm as a side dish alongside your favorite Caribbean-inspired main course. Enjoy the vibrant colors and flavors of this nutritious dish!
