Flash Cooked Greens With Garlic


This is a simple, delicious, healthy recipe that i adapted from one of my favorite cookbooks; a spoonful of ginger by nina simonds.

Steps


Tear the stems from the spinach.
If using other greens , cut away the tough ends.
Toss the greens in a colander and rinse thoroughly under cold running water.
Drain and place in a bowl near the stove.
Heat a wok or a skillet , add the oil , and heat until near smoking.
Add the greens and garlic and toss lightly with a spatula for about 20 seconds , then add the rice wine and salt and toss lightly over high heat about 1 minute or less , until the greens are slightly wilted but still bright green.
Scoop out the greens and garlic , leaving most of the liquid , and arrange on a serving platter.
Serve hot , at room temperature , or cold.
