Erbe in cucina - Ricetta: Frittata con foglie di ravanello e aglio cinese

Recipe: Radish Leaves Omelette with Nira
WHB #189

June 23, 2009

Do you remember Hummus con insalata estiva that I posted a few days ago?
This is a picture of the radishes used in ths summer salad, before the harvest.
Did you think that I wasted all these leaves?

I gave the external leaves to my turtles.
Then I used the tender ones, with some dandelion leaves and Nira garlic, in this omelette.

Radish Leaves Omelette with Nira

Ingredients
10-15 dandelion leaves
5-6 radish leaves
2 eggs
half glass of milk
nira garlic
oil

Directions
Cut the dandelion and radish leaves into stripes, and fry them in a pan with oil, until tender.
Meanwhite beat the eggs with the milk. Add the leaves, mix and put in the pan.
Turn the omelette upside down when golden brown, cook a few minutes.
Garnish with nira garlic and serve hot or room temperature.

Author: Elizabeth (URL) 23/06/2009 What a great idea! I just bought radishes yesterday and there are tons of beautiful looking leaves on them. We don t have any nira garlic (had to google to find out that they are garlic chives ) but we DO have chives. I ve got to try this omelette. It sounds delicious.
