Calaloo Greens
- 1 bunch of calalloo greens
- 2 tbsp peanut oil
- 6 cloves garlic, finely chopped garlic
- 1 tbsp miso paste
- fresh ginger (optional)
Wash the greens thoroughly and then shake dry. Remove the leaves and any tender stems, discarding the coarse stalks. Heat the oil in a wok over a high heat. Add the garlic and stir-fry briefly, add ginger if you want, then throw in the greens. Cook, stirring thoroughly until the leaves have wilted and the stalks are tender. Season with salt to taste, and serve.
In the plot, people came to the land; the land loved them; they worked and
struggled and had lots of children. There was a Frenchman who talked funny
and a greenhorn from England who was a fancy-pants but when it came to the
crunch he was all courage. Those novels would make you retch.
-- Canadian novelist Robertson Davies, on the generic Canadian
novel.
