Radíkia Saláta
Tender dandelion leaves
Salt
EVOO
Lemon
Pick (or buy) dandelion leaves and rinse them very well.

Serve them warm or cold with a little oil, lemon and salt, according to taste.
This version of dandelion salad is from Hará Vlachaki-Ljunggren’s book ’We cook greek food’ (Vi lagar grekiskt’, 1997), and her comment is: The salad is preferably eaten by itself as a small dish. It also goes well with fried fish.
