Butterbeans!

[likkleone]

I had a wonderful breakfast in Negril a couple weeks ago of butterbeans, fried dumplings and callaloo... I asked for the recipe for the butterbeans, but understandably, I haven't heard back from the owner of the cafe. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Does anyone have a nice recipe?

Re: Butterbeans!

Down here (in Australia)I cant get calaloo, so when I make a similar dish I fry some onions in oil, then add some red beans n spinach for a little bit, then a dash of worcestershire sauce n black pepper, it comes up nice indeed.
