Ingredients

  • 1 large bunch nettles (cleaned and steamed)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1/2 large sweet onion (diced)
  • 2 large garlic cloves (pressed)
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg (fresh ground)
  • juice of one lime
  • salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1/4 cup romano cheese (grated)

Method

  • Steam the nettle in a large pot for about 4-5 minutes. Save the liquid for soup or stews, or drink it, it's very nutritious.
  • Heat the coconut oil in a non-stick fry pan and saute the onion and garlic on medium low. Don't scorch the garlic, that will alter the flavour.
  • When the onion is transparent add the lime juice and stir, turn down low.
  • Add the steamed nettle and grate the nutmeg over top.
  • Add the salt and pepper and taste your dish. Adjust seasonings if necessary.
  • Remove from fry pan onto a nice serving dish and sprinkle with the grated cheese.
  • I served mine with the garlic toast.
  • Bon Appetit!
