Sauté of Winter Greens and Shiitake Mushrooms

This vibrant sauté of winter greens and shiitake mushrooms is a wonderful way to enjoy seasonal produce. The combination of earthy red and green Swiss chard with slightly bitter escarole provides a sophisticated flavour profile, which is beautifully balanced by the intense, savoury umami of browned shiitake mushrooms. It is a colourful and textured dish that brings a fresh, nutritious element to any dinner table during the colder months when leafy vegetables are at their best.

As a naturally dairy-free recipe, this versatile side dish is ideal for those seeking a lighter, plant-forward accompaniment to roasted meats or protein-rich grains. The greens are prepared in batches to ensure they retain their bright colour and tender-crisp texture, while the hint of dried chilli adds a gentle, warming heat. It is a simple yet elegant preparation that celebrates the natural beauty of home-cooked winter vegetables.
