Grilled Plaice & Springtime Greens

Simple paleo fair is a joy! Simple fish, greens and seasonal garnish.

Wilt some seasonal greens in a steamer - spring greens, kale and leek.

Place some fish, plaice ... under the grill or broiler for a few minutes with a little butter melting over and lay on top of the steamed greens.

Garnish with fresh herbs, extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice. For a seasonal flavour, add in some chopped wild garlic and for a real treat, grated black truffle which is also right in season at the moment.

Spring greens and kale are very strong in vitamins A, C & E, and have a substantial mineral content including manganese, iron, calcium and potassium. Likewise, leeks are an excellent source of vitamin C as well as iron and fibre.
