When making this dish from your garden or store bought greens, chooose only the young leaves and discard the older, tougher leaves. I like a shake or two of hot pepper flakes. Ingredients:
10 ounces washed beet greens |
1 tablespoon butter |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger |
1 lb beets or 1 (16 ounce) can cooked beets, drained and chopped |
1 lemon, juice of |
salt |
ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. In a large pot bring lightly salted water to boil.
2. Add the greens and cook to just limp-about 3 minutes.
3. Drain well and chop.
4. Melt the butter in a skillet, add the garlic, ginger, and greens and saute 1-2 minutes.
5. Stir in the chopped beets, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
6. Heat through, about 2 minutes and turn into a serving bowl.
