    Recipe Introduction


    This is an old Southern recipe. Everyone in the south can't wait until the first picking of leaf lettuce so they can make this dish.

    List of Ingredients




    lettuce, big bowl full
    three green onions
    5 TB oil or bacon grease
    5 TB vinegar
    1 cup warm water
    1/4 cup sugar
    salt

    Recipe



    Wash lettuce and cut up into pieces into a big bowl. Cut up onions and mix with lettuce. Salt the lettuce to your own liking. Heat up the oil, vinegar,water,and sugar to really really hot and then pour it over the lettuce. The lettuce will sizzle and shrink but it is suppose to. Now have a big buttery slice of cornbread with some brown beans and enjoy.
