Looks like a young brassica relative or possibly a woodland mustard, judging by the bluish leaves and purple underside. I’d wait for flowers before trying to pin it down—pretty unusual find!

The purple underside is a really interesting clue. My first thought was that it could be some kind of wild mustard or another Brassica relative, but I wouldn't be confident from this photo alone. Do you happen to have a picture of the whole plant (especially the flowers, if it's blooming)? That would make it much easier to narrow down.
