WOOD & COOP

The best thing about getting home late from a meeting? A quick supper. And it most always comes in the form of a grilled sandwich or warm greens and a fried egg.

Dandelion. Chicory. Radicchio treviso. Endive. All are great.

Heat a heavy pan on high heat. Chop the greens and add them straight to the pan. No oil. No butter. They will wilt under the heat. Once they have taken on some color and lost their shape prepare the dressing.

I make a dressing with lemon juice, mustard, olive oil, anchovies and red wine vinegar. Break the anchovies up in a bowl. Add the mustard and stir through until it is a tan paste. Add the lemon juice and the vinegar. Stir. Stream the oil in a bit at a time. Stir. Stir. Stir. Taste. Give it some pepper. It's ready.

Fry an egg.

Dressing over greens. Egg over greens. Supper.
