Crunchy Swiss vegetables
These crunchy vegetables cooked Swiss style go very well with the Swiss roast chicken and other meat recipes as a side dish.
Instructions
Melt butter in a large pan over medium high heat. Add kale and saute for about 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently.
Sprinkle with pepper, nutmeg, and flour. Stir to coat kale with flour.
Add water, turn heat to low, and cook, covered, for 6-7 minutes.
Remove pan from heat, add carrots and mix well.
Serve.
Notes
To prepare kale, wash the leaves, cut away the center ribs, along the stems, cut each leaf into 1/4 inch strips.
If you find kale too bitter, substitute it with the same amount of Swiss chard - sweeter flavor and softer texture. Prepare the chard the same way you would kale.
