Memo:

I recently have discovered fiddlehead ferns. These are so yummy that I can eat the whole dish in sitting! Great served with fish.

Ingredients

•  3 cups fresh fiddlehead ferns, ends trimmed
•  3 tablespoons unfiltered extra-virgin olive oil
•  1 clove garlic, minced
•  1/2 teaspoon sea salt
•  1/2 teaspoon black pepper
•  1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
2. Cook fiddlehead ferns in the boiling water until barely tender, 7 to 10 minutes.
3. Drain.
4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
5. Stir in the prepared fiddlehead ferns, garlic, and the salt and pepper.
6. Cook and stir until ferns are tinged lightly brown and tender, about 5 minutes.
7. Remove from heat and sprinkle with lemon juice.
