Ingredients:
Method:
Sweat the onions in the olive oil.
Meanwhile, boil a pan of water and add the dock leaves, sow thistle and dandelion leaves.
Boil for about a 30 seconds to a minute.
Strain off and discard the water (to remove excess bitterness from leaves).
Add this as well as the chopped dill, parsley, nettles, hairy bittercress and all other ingredients to the meat pan.
Also add about 3 cups of water.
Simmer for about one hour with a lid on the pan, stirring occasionally to ensure no sticking and add a little more water if necessary. Again serve with good rustic bread to soak up the juices.
