cinnamon, cloves, and broth and optional annato.

Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 40 to 50
mins.

Add the potatoes and continue to cook until the potatoes are
done, about 30 minutes.

Add the bananas *before* the potatoes are done but the

greens, undressed or a little lemon-lime juice.
