Spring greens with black pepper & crème fraîche

Method

• step 1

  Cut the trimmed spring greens in half lengthways. Bring a wide, shallow pan of salted water to the boil and add the spring greens. Bring back to the boil and cook briefly, about 1-2 minutes, then drain well.

• step 2

  Mix the crème fraîche in the pan with a sprinkle of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper and bring almost to the boil. Carefully add the spring greens so they don’t overlap too much and reheat gently.

• step 3

  Transfer the greens to a warmed shallow dish and spoon over the crème fraîche. Sprinkle with a little black pepper and serve immediately.
