Warrigal Greens - NZ Spinach
Otherwise known as New Zealand spinach, wariggal greens are high in vitamin C. They are native to Australia and New Zealand and are cultivated as a leafy vegetable used in omelettes, quiches or stir-fry (once blanched). Like silverbeet, the leaves contain oxalic acidic that can cause kidney stones and affect the absorption of calcium so always blanch leaves to remove majority of oxalic acid before eating.
