Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash and Prepare Turnip Greens

    Rinse the turnip greens thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Shake off excess water and chop into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Chop Aromatics

    Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

  2. 4

    Add Turnip Greens

    Add the chopped turnip greens to the skillet. Stir well to combine with the sautéed garlic and onion.

  3. 5

    Season and Cook

    Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes over the greens. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes, or until the greens are wilted and tender.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve

    Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the sautéed turnip greens to a serving dish. Enjoy warm as a side dish or add to your favorite grain bowl.
