I am always looking for ways to incorporate more kale into my recipes. Lin and Zoë are not typically fond of it on it's own. I am such a fan of Gwyneth Paltrow's recipes too as they always leave me so inspired to create in the kitchen.

I stumbled on her Kale Fried Rice Recipe and WHOA...so simple and so delish. And Lin and Zoë devoured it so I would say it was a success all the way around.

Kale Fried Rice Recipe

Ingredients

1/2 lb kale, stems discarded
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetableoil
2 cloves garlic, peeled and very finely minced
3 large scallions, cut into 1/8 inch diagonal slices
2 1/2 cups cooked brown rice (rice takes 45 minutes so plan that accordingly)
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Directions

Cut the kale leaves in half lengthwise and then cut crosswise into very thin ribbons (chiffonade).
Steam the kale for 7 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat.
Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, being careful not to brown the garlic.
Raise the heat to medium and add the steamed kale and scallions. Cook for 2 minutes.
Then, add the rice and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring.
Add the soy sauce and cook for 30 seconds more.

Cannot wait to see what you think of this one! Tag me on insta with your creation...

Cannot wait to play in the kitchen tonight with a James Beard tomato basil french onion soup! Loving new autumn vintage jackets and fresh fall bouquets this week to celebrate the cooler temps. Wishing everyone a happy productive week.
