Method:
- Place 20ml of oil in a pan and heat, leave one leaf in the pan from the beginning to see when it begins to cook and bubble
- At this point at more nettle leaves
- Each leaf needs room to cook (if you just chuck them all in the pan they will wilt down and not crisp up)
- After 1-2 minutes, or when they start turning slightly golden, turn them over and cook the other side
- Remove and place on some kitchen towel
- Add a little more oil and repeat the cooking with more fresh nettle tops until they’re all done
- Season with what you have to hand and enjoy
