Braised Greens with Turnips, Kohlrabi, and Bacon
/1 bunch of Chard or other quick cooking green, rough chopped
1 kohlrabi peeled and then medium diced
Turnips cut into half and then sliced into half moons
Turnip greens, Rough chopped
½lb bacon, diced
Salt and pepper to taste
Tapatio hot sauce (aka agua de vida)
Place diced bacon into pan and turn to medium heat. Slowly cook until bacon is starting to crisp then pull out and set aside. Add the diced kohlrabi to the pan and cook until it starts to brown a bit. Then add the sliced turnips. Continue cooking for about 3 minutes then add the turnip greens and swiss chard and cover. Cook until the greens are wilted and the moisture from the pan is almost evaporated then turn the heat off, Season with salt and pepper to taste then fold in the cooked bacon and serve.
This dish will be best if you hit it with a couple of dashes of hot sauce. Ideally you want something that is more acidic than hot which is why we recommend Tapatio (optional).
