Recipe - New Light Turnip Greens

2 pound Tender turnip or mustard
greens
1 tablespoon Olive oil
1 small Onion, chopped
2 Cloves garlic, crushed
2 cup Water
One half teaspoon Salt
Hot pepper vinegar

Pick over mustard greens and remove tough stems. Wash in cold water until
no trace of sand remains. Set aside to drain. Heat olive oil in large Dutch
oven or stockpot. Add onion and saute until almost browned, about 5
minutes. Stir in garlic and cook another minute, then add water. Bring to
boil. Add greens and salt, cover and simmer over low heat 15 minutes to 2
hours, or until greens are of desired doneness. Add enough water during
cooking as necessary to produce at least 1 cup cooking juices, known as pot
likker. Serve with hot pepper vinegar on side, for sprinkling over greens.
Makes 8 servings.
