Nettle Loaf

For the nettle loaf, first blanch the nettles in boiling water, then rinse in cool water or place briefly in ice water to retain their green color. Drain and squeeze well on kitchen paper.

Then place in a bowl and mix in an egg. Season with salt, pepper and grated nutmeg and mix everything well. Form small loaves from the nettle mixture and roll in flour.

Heat the butter in a frying pan and fry the nettle loafs at a moderate temperature, turning several times, until crispy on both sides.

Preparation Tip:

The nettle loaves are suitable as a side dish for many meat dishes or as a main course with a sauce.
