Beet Greens Recipe
Today I will be sharing a recipe with you that we throw away every time after we use its bulb. The recipe is the beet greens, made of the leaves we cut out from the beetroot.
Equipment
- Large Pot
- Large Skillet
Ingredients
- 2 Bunches Beet Greens
- 1 tbsp Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 Minced Garlic Cloves
- ¼ tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
- Salt
- Freshly Ground Black Pepper
- 2 Lemon
Instructions
- Take a large pot and add beet greens with some salt and water. Bring it to a boil and cook till the content gets tender. Once done, drain the leaves and stems into a colander and immerse them in cold water immediately. This will stop the cooking process. As the greens get cold, drain them again and chop them roughly.
- Take a large skillet and heat some olive oil in it over medium flame. Add garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet and cook till they get fragrant. Lastly, add the greens to the oil and stir them well.
- Season with salt and pepper as per the taste and cook till the greens get hot again.
- Serve hot.
