In spring, when weather turns sunny and
warmer, it is a good excuse to go out to pick wild greens to feed our mind and
stomach.

Nettle leaves, the top few leaves is most tender. Pick them wearing gloves and wash them with
gloves on too to avoid being stung. I stir-fry them with more oil then
normal because the texture is quite rough. It is not terribly delicious, but they are
free and high in iron.

Wild garlic leaves grow along river banks here,
are smaller and more tender than grown garlic, also milder in flavor and
aroma.

I also simply stir-fry them to enjoy their pure taste. They tasted
mildly sweet and have a nice soft texture.
