Tired of Thursday night kitchen sink tofu stir fries? Well so am I. So I wanted to do something different with our tatsoi this week. It was a little too cold for a salad, so I pretended the tatsoi was spinach (it’s so mild in flavor) and combined it with some turnip greens for an easy brown butter pasta dish.
Ingredients
- whole wheat pasta, preferably curved or with ridges
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter
- leaves from a bunch of tatsoi
- turnip greens, torn and washed
- 1/2 cup chopped sage
- Freshly grated parmesan
- Lemon wedges
Cook pasta to al dente in salted water. When pasta almost done done, melt butter in a skillet. Swirl the butter in the pan as it foams. (At this point, remove pasta from the heat and drain well in a colander.) When butter begins to brown, toss in pasta and mix to coat with butter. Salt and pepper to taste. Add greens and sage and cook until slightly wilted, about 1 to 2 minutes. Plate and serve immediately with grated parmesan and lemon wedges on the side. The lemon really makes this dish!
