Louvi- Black Eyed Peas with Chard

INGREDIENTS 

• 250 grams black-eyed beans
• 1 bunch of silverbeet or chard 
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• Fresh lemon juice
• Salt to taste
• Freshly ground black pepper

DIRECTIONS

1. Add blackeye beans in a pot with cold water and a little salt for at least 5hrs then drain and wash. 
2. Put blackeyed beans in a pot with water and boil for 15 minutes and drain. Wash thoroughly and return to the stove for another 15 minute in a low fire till the beans are soft. 
3. Meantime, wash thoroughly and cut silverbeet or chard in smaller pieces.
4. Use a large pot with lots of water and bring to a rapid boil. Add chard to the boiling water. If stems are more than 1-inch wide, cook them for 2 minutes before adding the leaves.  Do not cover the pot when cooking chard. Leaving the pot uncovered helps to release more of the acids with the rising steam.
5. Serve blackeye beans in a plate with the chard. Season with salt and ground black pepper, a drizzle of olive oil and lemon juice. 

Enjoy !!
