Sesame Kale
2 cloves minced garlic
1 bunch of kale
2 teaspoons sesame seed oil
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds
Salt and pepper if desired
Mince the garlic cloves (or open that jar!). Wash the kale, and shake
it, but leave it a little wet. If you don't like the stems, remove them
and save for vegetable broth. Tear the kale into bite-size pieces.
Heat the sesame seed oil in the skillet over medium-low heat. Add the
minced garlic and sauté for about 20 seconds. Add the kale and
water to the garlic and oil, and cover the skillet.
After 1 minute, stir the kale, then re-cover. After 1-2 more minutes,
when the kale is wilted, stir in the soy sauce and sesame seeds. If desired,
add salt and/or pepper to taste. Some like to add a little lemon juice.
Makes 6 to 8 servings.
