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 ½ 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.
