INGREDIENTS
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup onion, sliced into thin shreds
1-2 hot peppers, chopped
4 cups small turnip green leaves
1/3 cup reserved steaming water
1/4 teaspoon smoked sweet paprika
1 teaspoon rice vinegar

DIRECTIONS

     Heat water in a steamer pot.
     In a saucepan, heat olive oil, stir in onions and sauté until limp. Add hot peppers, reduce
heat to low, cover and cook 5 minutes.
