If you have a profusion of greens you can't use up in a recipe, or you're just looking for a side dish to increase your intake of greens, this is a delicious option. It goes well as a base for eggs in a brunch or breakfast plate.

1 bunch greens (8oz) (beet tops, chard, spinach, and turnip greens), stems sliced thin, leaves cut into strips
1 small onion (4oz/115g)
¼ cup vegetable oil (olive, whatever)
Pinch of salt
½ cup stock (chicken, vegetable, whatever)
Juice from ½ lime
OPTIONAL a pinch of red pepper flakes
- Poach the onion in the oil until it becomes soft. Add the sliced stems (if there are any).
- Note that any browning at this stage is good - it will add flavour.
- Once the stems are soft add the leaves and the pinch of salt. Sautée until the leaves wilt, then add the broth. Keep stirring until a quarter of the broth has evaporated.
- Squeeze over the lime, toss one last time, then serve immediately.
