Pasta with Tatsoi and Brown Butter

By garciamoss

I didn't know what tatsoi is until I received it in my CSA box. Searched the internet for a tasty recipe. Most of the ingredients listed here are kitchen staples.

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

Preparation

Step 1

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!
