Ingredients

  • 1 pound turnip greens
  • 1 pound mushrooms pre-sliced (to save time)
  • 1 teaspoons ginger finely grated
  • 1/2 cup almonds raw and whole or blanched
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce tamari or coconut aminos
  • 2 teaspoons arrowroot flour

Instructions

  • Wash turnip greens really well. Slice stems and combine with the mushrooms. Chop up the green into big bite sized pieces and put aside.
  • Heat a wok or saute pan on medium high heat. Once hot, add the oil, garlic and ginger and stir for about 1-2 minutes. Next, add the mushrooms and turnip green stems.
  • Cook, stirring frequently, until they start to stick (if too much water is coming out of the mushrooms, increase the heat slightly). Add the orange juice and continue to cook until the stems are starting to soften.
  • Add the rest of the turnip leaves and the almonds. Cook, stirring frequently, until the leaves are fully wilted.
  • Add the soy sauce and sprinkle the corn starch over the top. Stir well. Let the arrowroot powder thicken the juices left in the bottom of the wok for 3-4 minutes (still stirring frequently).
