Dandelion Greens Flavored with Anchovies

This is one of my favorite salad recipes. The secret flavor ingredients here are anchovies and garlic.

First, in a skillet, brown red potatoes with a couple of anchovies, garlic and a little olive oil. The anchovies will melt and give the potatoes a nice salty flavor. 

After the potatoes have softened, add some raw sunflower seeds and lemon zest, throw in a little sea salt and let the sunflower seeds get crunchy.  Last step is throwing in the dandelion greens.   The greens will wilt and all the flavors will merge together, creating a taste sensation.  For a nice finishing touch, mix in a hard boiled egg or two and squeeze lemon juice over your salad.
 
I can never stop eating this salad.  Something about the mixture of salty, bitter, nutty and sour tastes makes it really special.
