Stewed kale


How to Make Braised Kale
Time: 15 min.
Complexity: easily
Servings: 4 - 6


Kale is a treasure trove of vitamins and nutrients. But, as often happens, not all healthy foods are tasty. Some people enjoy kale's natural bitterness, while others find it unpalatable. This recipe will help you prepare a delicious kale, offsetting its bitterness with the more familiar piquant flavor of garlic, hot pepper, and red wine vinegar. Furthermore, the kale is simmered in broth for just a few minutes, making it more digestible without significantly diminishing its nutritional value. Drizzle the sautéed kale with vinegar and serve as a side dish with any meat or fish dish.


Ingredients:

  • 1 bunch kale, stems trimmed, leaves cut into 1cm lengths.
  • Olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • A pinch of crushed red pepper
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tbsp sherry vinegar
