Directions
Warm a skillet over medium heat. Pour in a little water, then add the beet greens. Let them cook until they’re nicely wilted, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes. Season everything with a pinch of salt and some pepper, and keep cooking until most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir in the garlic, then pour in the cream. Let it all simmer gently until the cream thickens up, which usually takes around 5 minutes.
Serving Options To Try
Serve this dish warm as a side to grilled meats or roasted vegetables. It also works well over a bed of rice or alongside crusty bread to soak up the creamy sauce.
How To Freeze This Dish
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave to prevent the cream from separating.
