Garlicky greens

I serve this cold with a summer pie

Really tasty and easy to do. I used fine beans and tender stem broccoli with the peas and it was lovely.

Delish! I added some fresh chillis and it went down a treat. We had with boiled brown rice. My husband has asked me to do this again, he absolutely loved it!

Delicious! A real nice change from "the usual veg". Had it with mashed potatoes and the Sausage and Bean Casserole. My son's girlfriend who stayed for tea said she wouldn't normally eat veg, but this was lovely.

Loved this... I steamed my vegetables whilst cooking the peas/garlic/shallots in the stock. Done in 10 minutes LUSH

Lovely! Gives 'boring' veg a nice twist! My OH insists that I make greens in this way. A hit in our household

Sometimes when I try to do something a bit different with green veg, I wonder why I didn't just prepare them simply but this had an excellent flavour without masking the veggies' own taste. I used broccoli and French beans with the peas which worked well. I DID boil them briefly first - there isn't much stock in the frying pan with the peas and I wasn't sure they would cook through sufficiently if I only steamed them as Woolly suggests. I didn't find them over-cooked - and I loathe mushy veg!

I am going to try this but I can't understand why one would boil the other greens (asparagus etc.) in a separate pan when you've already got stock in the other which could steam and cook the veggies in the same pan, so this is what I'll do. Good ideas though.

This is delicious and so simple to do. It transforms everyday vegetables into something special. We love it!

Interesting way to cook greens. I added some broad beans with peas which were tasty. Seemed a huge quantity for four people though - but perhaps thats just us.
