Here is how you make Broccoli rappi- sweet and smoky with garlic:

Makes about 3 very generous 1 cup servings.1. Wash the broccoli raab thoroughly but don't shake off the excess water, you'll want this to help steam and wilt it in the pan. Slice the other vegetables and heat 1 Tablespoon olive oil or nut oil in a deep frying pan over medium high heat. 2. Sautee the onions, garlic slices, (reserve the minced), mushrooms and peppers for about 5 minutes, stirring quickly at first to coat with the oil.Add 1/2 the salt so it sweats the onions and mushrooms along with the tumeric. Stir once or twice more during time to keep from burning but you want them to brown.3. Add the minced garlic to the 2 Tablespoons water and toss into pan. Immediately put in the chopped broccoli raab, pour in the cider vinegar and salt and chipotle powder and black pepper. Squeeze the lemon wedges over it, then add them to the pot. Toss well to bring hot vegetables on top, letting the greesn start to wilt. This takes about 3-5 minutes. 4. Add the blackstrap molasses to the juice on the bottom and mix well. Cover, reduce to a medium low heat and let simmer for 5-10 minutes until the broccoli is as tender as you like it. Stir occasionally to blend the flavors. Remove the lemon wedges (or leave them in for color) and serve immediately while hot. Number of Servings: 3Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user CCKELLY3.
