The Secret of Kale
The professional trick is the "massage." By rubbing 3.5 oz of kale leaves with lemon and salt, we break its fibers, making the leaf tender and much easier to digest.
Step-by-Step Preparation
- The Roast (30 min): Cut 10.5 oz sweet potato into cubes. Drain 7 oz cooked chickpeas and dry them well. Put both on a baking tray with 1/2 tbsp EVOO and 1/6 oz paprika. Bake at 400°F for 25-30 minutes.
- Kale Preparation: Meanwhile, massage the kale with a few drops of lemon for 2 minutes until it reduces in volume.
- Tahini Sauce: Mix 1 oz tahini, the juice of half a lemon and 1/2 tbsp warm water until you get a smooth cream.
- Assembly: In a large bowl, place the kale, roasted sweet potato and crispy chickpeas.
- Finishing: Pour the tahini sauce and add 1/3 oz hemp seeds or radishes.
