    2 Tbs (30 ml) butter
    1 onion, finely chopped
    2-4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    1/2 lb (225 g) callaloo greens (dasheen, taro leaves)
    or spinach or Swiss chard leaves, washed, trimmed,
    and coarsely chopped
    3 cups (750 ml) chicken stock
    1/2 cup (125 ml) canned coconut milk
