Chard stew with almonds is a Turkish-style home-cooked vegetable dish, made by simmering chard leaves and stems, often with onion, then adding almonds. Chard is a familiar ingredient in Turkish kitchens, where it is commonly cooked in a pot rather than served raw; the almonds bring a gently sweet, nutty note.
The chard turns tender while the almonds add a little bite. Serve it warm or at room temperature, with bread or alongside other vegetable dishes. It is a fibre-containing choice for a vegetable-focused meal, and the almonds make it more substantial. For a lighter version, use olive oil sparingly and add the almonds just before serving so they retain some crunch.
