Kale is not only a deliciously
under-appreciated vegetable;
it is also a wonderful winter
dish for those who like to cook
things that are in season. This
recipe has the perfect amount
of crunch and flavor that will
make you forget about the main
dish. Makes 2-4 servings.
Ingredients:
1 head of kale, washed and deveined
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
(the dark kind)
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 pinch salt
1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
(optional)
Method:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Tear the kale into bite-size pieces
and then spread it out evenly
on a cookie sheet covered in
foil.
Drizzle oil and vinegar on top
of the kale, then scrunch it with
your fingers until the liquid
is evenly distributed over the
greens.
Sprinkle the sesame seeds, garlic,
and salt over the top.
Bake for 10 minutes, until the
leaves are crispy but still dark
green.
Serve and chow down!
