Creamed Swiss Chard With Mushroom And Feta

Creamed Swiss Chard With Mushroom And Feta


1. Rinse the fresh chard leaves very well, trim the stalk ends, and separate the leaves from the stems/stalks on each side. Chop the stalks into pieces of about 1cm to 2cm. Roughly chop the leaves.

2. In a saucepan heat the oil, masala and onion to medium. Stir and cook for a few minutes.

3. Add chopped chard stems, butter, mushrooms, garlic, nutmeg, salt and white pepper. Continue sauteeing and stirring on medium heat until the chard stems and mushrooms are soft.

4. Add the water and chard leaves, give a good stir and put the lid on for a few minutes to steam the leaves until competely wilted.

5. Pulse using a stick blender in the saucepan, slowly adding cream, until the creamed chard is the consistency you require. This is where your skill and personal preference come in! I prefer my chard to retain some chunky texture of mushroom and chard stems in a creamy green base.

6. Finally stir in the feta cubes and allow them to slightly melt in the warm vegetables.
