How to make it
- First, clean the taro leaves by removing the skin from the stalks, and by removing the tip from the center rib. Next, cut and rinse the taro leaves into very small pieces. Then place the taro leaves, onion, okra, garlic, thyme, water, salted pig's tail, pumpkin, habanero pepper (the entire pepper), and coconut milk into a large-sized pot. Next, cover the mixture and simmer over low heat for approximately 30 minutes. Next add the blue crab to the mixture. Make sure that you do not puncture the habanero pepper. Then cover once again and continue to let simmer for approximately 30 more minutes. Finally, remove the habanero from the mixture, and add salt (amount will depend on your taste). The soup should then be pureed until smooth using an immersion blender. This dish can then be served as a soup or over rice. Enjoy!
