This is a simple, easy way to prepare purslane. Add diced, cooked potatoes and garbanzo beans to this recipe to make a really nice potato salad.

• 1/2 bunch purslane, cleaned, large stems removed and roughly
• chopped
• 1 large clove garlic, minced
• Juice from 1/2 lemon
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/3 cup plain yogurt
• Red chile flakes, to taste
• Salt, to taste

Directions

In a jar with a lid, combine garlic, lemon juice, oil, yogurt and salt. Cover and shake well, until well mixed and pourable. Pour mixture over purslane (and beans and potatoes, if using) and stir to coat. Sprinkle with red chile flakes and serve.
