Chard stew with sucuk is a Turkish home-style dish of leafy chard cooked in a pot with sliced sucuk, a boldly seasoned Turkish sausage. Onion is a common addition, and some versions include tomato or a little pepper paste; the chard stems are often cooked along with the leaves.
The greens soften while keeping a slight bite, and the sausage brings a savoury, spicy richness. Serve it hot with bread, rice or plain yoghurt; it works as a simple main or as part of a larger meal. It provides protein, while chard contributes iron and vitamin K. For a lighter pot, use less sucuk and oil and let the greens make up most of the dish.
