Preparation
Step 1
Warm a large enameled saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 ounce bacon or pancetta and 1 tablespoon butter and let cook for a few minutes before adding 2 or 3 very small onions or scallions (trimmed and left whole); 3 small carrots; 3 or 4 tiny potatoes, peeled and 3 or 4 small turnips, peeled. Season generously with salt and pepper, then stir with a wooden spoon to coat and allow the vegetables to brown lightly. Add a ½ cup water or chicken broth and cover. Let simmer briskly for 12 to 15 minutes.
When the vegetables are tender, add a handful of shelled sweet peas, snap peas or snow peas and, a few minutes later, a large handful of pea shoots, mustard greens or spinach and a little finely chopped thyme. If you like, sprinkle with chopped parsley just before serving.
