All The Kale Please Vol. II..The Coconut Edition




All The Kale Please Vol. II..The Coconut Edition

I was inspired today by going on a play date with Esme. The kids were eating Thai Green Curry and the house just smelled amazing! It made me SUPER hungry! So I thought, what do I have in my cupboards or fridge that can even remotely replicate this? Being the beginning of the month, we had slightly more of an abundance of food than usual. So this means..KALE!! YUM!!

It was definitely a 15 minute throw everything together sort of meal! But pretty delicious and worth it :)

Note: This does not taste like Green Curry, but the nearest I could get with the ingredients in my cupboards!!

What you need: (feeds 2-3 people)

Tofu (1/2 block for 2 people)
Kale (1/2 bag, more if needed!)
Olive Oil/Coconut oil
Rice
Onion
Garlic (2 Cloves)
1 tbsp flour (GF)
1-2 tsp chilli powder
Salt & Pepper
Tin of Coconut milk
Seeds

What you need to do (apart from save the world)

  • Put on enough rice to feed ALL the people
  • Fry Onions and Garlic for a couple of minutes, throw in the chopped tofu. Saute until Tofu is brown
  • Add the Kale, saute, then the chilli powder.
  • Scoop the cream off the top of the coconut milk
  • Add the flour, stir, then the water from the tin of coconut milk
  • The sauce should thicken, add as much coconut cream as you think is needed!
  • Add salt and pepper to taste
  • Decorate with seeeds
  • EATS!!!
