Prepare the purslane: Ensure the purslane is thoroughly washed and dried. Cut the leaves and soft stems into small pieces.
Cook the onion and garlic in a large frying pan with olive oil on medium heat. Put the chopped onion and garlic in the pan and cook them until they are soft and smell good.
Include the purslane: Turn up the heat to medium-high and put the purslane in the pan. Stir the greens often because they will shrink as they cook.
Time of year: Once the purslane has become soft (around 3-5 minutes), put in the diced tomatoes, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly to blend all the flavors.
Cook: Lower the heat and let the mixture simmer for around 10 minutes until the tomatoes soften and the purslane is cooked.
Add some lemon juice on top of the cooked purslane just before serving for an extra burst of freshness.
