Braised Chard with Currants and Feta
1 bunch chard
1 large garlic clove, finely chopped
2 Tb olive oil
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
3 Tb dried currants
1/3 C water
1/3 C feta, crumbled
Cut stems and center ribs from chard, discarding any tough parts near base, then cut stems and ribs crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices. Coarsely chop leaves. Cook garlic in oil in a 4-qt pot over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, 1-2 min. Add chard stems and ribs, salt & pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, 4 min. Add currants and cook, stirring, until plump, about 1 min. Add chard leaves and water and increase heat to moderate, then cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until leaves are tender, about 5 min. Remove from heat and stir in feta. Gourmet, Dec. 2006.
