Clean and rinse the prepared nettles and bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the nettles and cook until they fade, about 5-10 minutes. Finally strain.
In a large cast iron or non-stick pan, heat two tablespoons of butter and two cloves of garlic over medium heat until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Stir in one tablespoon of flour and simmer for about one minute until the mixture is smooth and bubbly.
Add nettle and ½ cup of water and cook. Stir the nettle, stirring constantly, until the liquid evaporates, about 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, beat ⅓ a cup of milk and two tablespoons of sour cream. Finally, mix the mixture into the nettles. Add a pinch of nutmeg; season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
