One of the best recipe I’ve seen everyone else sauté seasoning in oil first which I’ve never heard of.

Swizzzle all the way

[@monifastclair4466]

Exactly the way I do mine... love it

[@janicelegere7910]

Every one cooks to their own taste and likeness. I use less coconut and more ochroes, lots off ochroes. I like my calaloo thinner

This is the best video I have seen so far....I make mines similar I peel the skin of the stem and well I have a dasheen in my backyard so I cut the really young leaves (rolled one) and I make a knot with each 1 so I dont ever have to blend....and I use coconut milk as well as carnation milk

[@louellasween4495]

[@janetspell1396]

[@Sportsandcomedy-e3s]

I think that comment was disrespectful to our parents,about the Stone Age we can use modern tools without knocking the past,I have my swizzle stick,hand blender and Blender ,maybe you learn to make Callao using a blender.😡

[@salishasamaroo419]

That is to thick.

[@haimamaha6448]

Who blends their callaloo😳😳 old fashion way of using a swizzle stick is best. Also , this came out thick...yuck not even looking delicious

[@christinek4569]

Haima Maha why comment if you don’t like it ?? Just because you make it different doesn’t mean her way is “yuck”. Get over yourself. They literally track kids in kindergarten that if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all.

[@carolking8835]

Gain a Maha.... Everyone have their own special way of cooking Trinbago local cuisine. This woman made it her way and I am sure it was delicious and VERY healthy with all of the ingredients used. In North America swizzle sticks are not readily available and so we transplanted Trinbagogian have to use a blender and in most cases spinach to replace the dasheen bush. It's all about delicious and using what you got!!!

[@stacy7780]

Haima Maha I blend callaloo, and so does million of working busy people who don't have time to come here and say Yuck to someone who is doing more with her talent and sweet hand (i know cause her food is delicious B). Your comment has no value here OK, take your swizzle stick and use it like the old time way and stick it up you know the rest... bye :)

[@divadonz]

Haima Maha who have time to swizzle down d place?🤨🤔

[@steelmatilda9528]

Your face is yuck
