Notes
I add a portion of the garlic at the end, so that we enjoy both the flavour and the healing qualities.
I prefer toasted sesame oil for the 'finishing oil'. Such flavour! This is more of a guideline than anything.
I don't always use the same ingredients.
Basic version: Greens, small amount oil, onion. Sauté and toss. Enjoy! Serves 4 happy people!
