Ingredients

12 cups mixed greens
4 large garlic cloves
1 x salt
2 large handfuls italian parsley leaves, chopped finely
1 handful cilantro leaves chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil fruity
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons cumin ground
1 each lemon cut in wedges

Directions

Make a mixture of greens to suit your taste.

Cut away the stems and stalks and wash the leaves.

Set the greens in a steamer, with the tougher greens on the bottom.

Cover and steam until tender, about 10 minutes.

Or, cook each type of green separately in boiling, salted water, until done.

Let cool a few minutes in a colander, then squeeze out the extra liquid and chop roughly.

Pound the garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a mortar until finely broken down, then add the parsley and cilantro and continue working until you have a rough paste.

Or, combine the garlic, salt and herbs in a food processor and work until everything is fine.

You may need to add a little olive oil.

Warm the olive oil with the paprika and cumin.

When it begins to smell good, add the herb paste and mix the 2 together.

Next add the greens and cook everything together for a minute or so until any excess moisture has evaporated.

Taste and season with salt, if necessary.

Pile into a serving dish and garnish with the wedges of lemon.
