Ingredients:

200g wild mustard greens (or you can use any strongly-flavoured greens eg kale, collards etc)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp mustard seeds (preferably black)
1 small onion, chopped
1 tbsp freshly-grated ginger root
3 birds-eye chillies, finely chopped (de seeded if you don't want it very hot)
1 400g tin of beans (butter beans, barlotti beans, black beans, red kidney beans etc)
1 400g tin chopped tomatoes
1 tbspcurry powder
80ml double cream

Method:

Wash the mustard greens, remove the stems and cut into strips. Bring a large pot of lighly-salted water to a boil, add the mustard greens and blanch for a two minutes or so. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain and rinse under cold water to prevent further cooking.

Meanwhile heat the oil in a large pan and add the mustard seeds. Cook until these begin to pop and flavour the oil then add the onion and fry until gently browned. Stir-in the ginger and chillies then add the spices.

Now mix-in the beans and tomatoes. Bring to a simmer and cook gently for 5 minutes before stirring-in the mustard greens and cream. Continue cooking until heated through and serve on a bed of rice.
