Braised Kale
As much as I love my raw kale, if it's a colder day outside, or you're serving something that simply doesn't suit that dish, here's another great option!
- Saute garlic in olive oil in a dutch oven over medium.
- Add some diced plum tomatoes.
- Add some washed, spun-dry kale that you've torn manually.
- Stir, add a splash of red wine or broth and cover. Let simmer for a few minutes and then turn the flame off.
(Technically, a braise would cook much longer than this, however, I prefer to only lightly cook it so as to preserve more of the nutrients.)
Let sit while you plate the rest of your meal and enjoy this warm kale preparation!
