Kale Salad
Ingredients:
- 5 cups of kale
- Half a cup of dried cranberries
- 1 mango, cut into bite-size chunks
- Mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon of butter
- 4-5 cloves of garlic
- Sesame seeds
Preparation:
- Slice the garlic. Place the butter in a pan, and fry the sliced garlic and the mushrooms in it. Use medium-high heat, and cook until the mushrooms start turning brown (takes about 5-10 minutes). If the garlic gets cooked before the mushrooms, gently remove it from the pan, then add it back when the mushrooms are ready.
- Meanwhile, clean the kale, remove the stems, and cut or tear it into bit-size chunks. Once the mushrooms and garlic are cooked, add the kale. Stir and cook for a couple of minutes.
- Add the dried cranberries and the mango chunks. Stir, and remove from heat.
- Sprinkle sesame seeds all over the recipe. Serve warm.
Presentation:
- There's already a beautiful mix of colors in this recipe. Place the dish on an interesting dish (either blue or some other color that nicely complements the colors in the dish, or with an interesting pattern, or both). Feel free to sprinkle some extra sesame seeds on top before placing the dish in front of the guests.
About author
I cook to relax, to make family and friends happy, to recreate favorite dishes I've enjoyed in the past, or to discover new concoctions. I use my creativity to prepare authentic Romanian and Eastern-European dishes with ingredients easily found in grocery stores outside of this geographic area. I put emphasis on flavor and ease of preparation. I find joy in knowing that others have a chance to try out some of these recipes. I'd love to hear back your thoughts on my posts: my email is liviutzu@gmail.com. Don't be a stranger. :)
