Instead of throwing your silverbeet stalks away, take inspiration from the Italians with this delicious braised silverbeet stalk recipe.
This yummy pasta recipe uses the entire silverbeet - stalks and all. The silverbeet leaves are wilted down with a little lemon juice. The stalks are blanched and then oven roasted until slightly caramelised, which makes them super tender, then topped with a herb & lemon crumb. It's all tossed together with a thick pappardelle pasta and a good helping of grated parmesan.
Malfatti, meaning "badly made," are simple, misshapen, and delicious—no need for perfection here! Try these easy, cheesy Italian dumplings that is somewhere between gnocchi and ravioli.
