dandelion, stinging nettle and radish leaf salad

i don't have any typical salad greens such as lettuce, rocket or spinach growing in my garden at the moment

seeds planted in april didn't germinate

and i haven't managed to plant any more

but they're lots of stinging nettles, new dandelion leaves (after autumn pruning) and leaves from freshly picked radishes

to make the salad

boil the dandelion leaves for five minutes in a few tablespoons of water

add radish leaves and cook briefly

then add nettles and boil for a minute or so

drain leaves over a bowl

pour boiled green's water into a glass
and drink

dress the greens with lemon juice, olive oil and salt
and eat

happy winter solstice
