This vibrant vegan dish of sautéed greens with cannellini beans is a masterclass in simple, Mediterranean-style cooking. By gently infusing olive oil with sliced garlic and a pinch of dried chilli, you create a fragrant base that perfectly complements the earthy flavours of kale, spinach or broccoli rabe. The addition of creamy white beans provides a satisfying texture, making this a versatile recipe that works equally well as a nutritious lunch or a substantial side dish for roasted meats and fish.
Packed with fibre and essential vitamins, this heart-healthy recipe is an excellent way to incorporate more leafy vegetables into your weekly diet. The dish is finished with a splash of sherry wine vinegar, which provides a bright acidity to balance the richness of the extra virgin olive oil. Serve it warm with a slice of crusty sourdough bread to soak up the garlic-scented juices for a simple yet sophisticated homemade meal.

Ingredients for Sauteed Greens with Cannellini Beans and Garlic
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoons dried crushed red pepper
1 large bunch greens (such as spinach, mustard greens, kale, or broccoli rabe
about 450g ), thick stems removed, spinach left whole, other greens cut into 1-inch strips (about 2400ml packed)
240ml (or more) vegetable broth or low-salt chicken broth
1 425g can cannellini (white kidney beans), rinsed, drained
1 teaspoon (or more) Sherry wine vinegar
How to make Sauteed Greens with Cannellini Beans and Garlic
Heat 60ml oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and dried crushed pepper; stir until garlic is pale golden, about 1 minute. Add greens by large handfuls; stir just until beginning to wilt before adding more, tossing with tongs to coat with oil.
Add 1 cup broth, cover, and simmer until greens are just tender, adding more broth by tablespoonfuls if dry, 1 to 10 minutes, depending on type of greens. Add beans; simmer uncovered until beans are heated through and liquid is almost absorbed, about 2 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon vinegar. Season with salt and pepper, and more vinegar if desired; drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and serve.
