Mustardy Greens Recipes

DELICIOUS MUSTARD GREENS

Steps:

• Heat peanut oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the bacon bits and garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in 2 or 3 handfuls of mustard greens, allow the greens to wilt, and stir in remaining greens; sprinkle with onion powder. Continue to cook and stir until the greens are bright green, wilted, and starting to become tender, 2 to 3 more minutes. Drizzle greens with fish sauce, stir to combine, and serve.

SIMPLE SAUTEED MUSTARD GREENS

Steps:

• In a large pan with straight sides on medium heat add the oil. Add the garlic to the hot oil. Saute until garlic is softened and fragrant and has infused the oil.
• Add the mustard greens. Season the greens with salt, and pepper, and saute while tossing to wilt. Once wilted add the chicken stock and stir. Raise heat to a simmer, then lower and cook for about 5 minutes more.
• Stir in the ground mustard. Serve warm.

SOUTHERN MUSTARD GREENS

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large, wide pot and cook over medium heat until some of the fat has rendered and the bacon is light golden, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes more. Add the mustard greens in batches, letting each batch wilt before adding the next. Add the chicken broth, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and cook, covered, until the greens are very tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve with hot sauce on the side.

MUSTARDY GREENS

Steps:

• Heat 250ml water in a large pan. Add the greens and peas, cover with a lid and boil for 4 mins. Drain into a colander, put the pan back on the heat, and add the butter and mustards. When the butter has melted, add the veg back to the pan, season well and toss everything together. Serve straight away.

SPICY MUSTARD GREENS WITH CUMIN

Steps:

• Heat oil in large wide pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and sauté until soft, about 7 minutes. Stir in garlic, cumin seeds, and crushed red pepper; sauté 3 minutes. Add mustard greens to pot in batches (about 1/3 at a time) and stir until each batch begins to wilt before adding next, about 3 minutes per batch. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until greens are very tender, stirring frequently, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in vinegar. (Can be made 3 hours ahead.) Transfer to bowl and serve hot or at room temperature.

WILTED MUSTARD GREENS

Steps:

• Heat an 8-quart soup pot over medium heat. Add bacon; cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp. Drain on paper towels.
• Add shallots and garlic to pan with bacon fat. Saute until tender, about 2 minutes.
• Add greens and stock; toss well to coat. If all greens don't fit, let wilt in pan until there is room to add more. Cover; cook until all greens are wilted, about 10 minutes, tossing occasionally. Uncover; cook until greens are tender and most liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes more.
• Stir in the vinegar, season with salt and pepper, and serve warm garnished with the bacon and hot sauce, if using.
