Jamaican style Callaloo and Saltfish | Recipe for cooking callaloo the Jamaican way | Jerene's Eats

saltfish

🥗Healthier: smoked mackerel

💰Cheaper: canned tuna

Canned tuna is more affordable and still provides protein.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Vegetable oil is often less expensive and has a neutral flavor.

Clean the callaloo by separating the leaves and stalks.

Peel the tough membrane from the thicker stalks to make them easier to eat.

Chop the callaloo into small pieces, cutting the stalks thinly or lengthwise to ensure even cooking.

Optionally, cook the stalks first before adding the leaves, or cook everything at the same time if the stalks are cut thin enough.

Hold the leaves together and chop them into strips for easier preparation.
