Sautéed Spicy Dandelion Greens and Onions

This vibrant vegetarian dish of spicy sautéed dandelion greens and onions offers a sophisticated balance of flavours. The natural bitterness of the greens is softened by blanching, then beautifully countered by the mellow sweetness of slowly softened onions and garlic. A hint of fresh cherry pepper or dried chilli flakes provides a gentle heat that cuts through the rich butter and olive oil finish, making it an excellent seasonal side for those looking to expand their leafy green repertoire.

Packed with nutrients, this simple sauté is a wonderful addition to a healthy midweek meal or a Sunday roast alternative. Dandelion greens are highly prized for their earthy qualities and work harmoniously alongside roasted root vegetables or crusty sourdough. For the best results, ensure the greens are well-drained after blanching to allow the aromatic oils to coat every leaf, resulting in a glossy, savoury finish that feels both light and indulgent.

Ingredients for Sautéed Spicy Dandelion Greens and Onions

  • 1.8kg dandelion greens, tough (lower) parts of stems discarded and leaves cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus additional for drizzling

  • 2 cucharadas de mantequilla sin sal

  • 2 large onions, halved and thinly sliced

  • 4 large garlic cloves, coarsely chopped

  • 1 fresh hot Italian cherry pepper, seeded and minced, or 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper

  • Sal y pimienta negra recién molida

Cook greens in 2 batches in an 8-quart pot of well-salted boiling water, uncovered, until ribs are tender, about 10 minutes per batch. Scoop out each batch of greens as cooked with a skimmer or slotted spoon into a colander, then rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Drain well, gently pressing out excess water, and transfer to a bowl.

Heat oil and butter in cleaned pot over medium heat until foam subsides, then cook onions with garlic, cherry pepper, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoons pepper, covered, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, about 8 minutes. Add greens and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer dandelion green mixture with a slotted spoon to a serving bowl and drizzle with additional oil.
