Sauteed Stinging Nettles with Garlic

Another nettle recipe that passed the test in our family. I can't say that it's extraordinary and I'm ready to eat it every week, but in the right season it still has a very decent taste, much better consistency than other recipes I've tried so far.

Served with polenta as if it has a different charm, so I recommend you to do the same. If you do not fast you can sprinkle a little feta cheese, it will be even tastier.
