Silverbeet often gets mistaken for spinach and is actually more closely related to the beetroot family.  Silverbeet has large waxy leaves with a white stem and is a good source of iron.  We prefer to only use part of the stem closest to the leaf.  Silverbeet brings a bit of a bitter taste to the dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium onion – peeled, rinsed, diced finely
  • 1 clove garlic – peeled, rinsed, crushed
  • 3 medium size tomatoes – washed, diced
  • 8 cups silverbeet – washed, roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 lemon – juiced
