Provided by Heart Healthy Greek

Categories     Side Dish

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 lbs dandelion greens
2 lemons
¼ cup olive oil
pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with water, add a pinch of salt, and bring water to a boil.
  • While water is coming to a boil, trim and wash the greens, removing any brown leaves.
  • Immerse the greens in a clean sink filled with water, swish greens around to remove sand/dirt. Remove greens from the sink, drain water, and refill sink with clean water. Soak and swish greens again. Depending on how much dirt is in the greens, you may have to do this 3 times, until no more dirt remains in the water.
  • Add greens to boiling water, submerging them completely in water.
  • Cook on medium, stirring occasionally for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the stems are fork-tender.
  • Drain the water and place the cooked greens in a bowl.
  • Dress the greens with olive oil and the juice of 2 lemons. Serve Horta warm or at room temperature.
