Bitawiri with salted meat

Bitawiri is a dark green leafy vegetable that has its name for a reason, as bita means bitter in Sranantongo. In Suriname, it is stewed with onion, tomato and a piece of salted meat, and served with white rice.

Cook the salted meat separately first, briefly at first to draw out the worst of the salt, and then gently until tender. The savoury meat keeps the bitterness in check, but it must be tender before adding the leaves, as they only need a few minutes themselves.

Don't be alarmed by the mountain of leaves you put in the pan. Leafy greens shrink to a fraction of their size when stewed, so what looks like too much for two will soon be just enough next to a plate of rice.
