Ingredients

  • 500g curly kale
  • 1tbsp olive oil, plus extra to serve
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed with a little salt
  • 1tsp chilli flakes
  • 50g pine nuts, toasted
  • seeds of 1 large pomegranate
  • 200g feta, crumbled

Method

Strip the kale of its tough stems if bought from a greengrocer. Kale from a supermarket is usually ready chopped. Simply remove any white stems and discard them as they are tough.

Heat the oil in a wok, add the garlic and stir. When it sizzles, add the curly kale and chilli flakes and stir again, then lower the heat and cover with a lid. Cook for 5 minutes until the leaves are tender. Drain the leaves through a sieve and transfer to a serving bowl.

Add the pine nuts and half the pomegranate seeds and toss together. Then add the crumbled feta on top, followed by the rest of the seeds. Drizzle with a little olive oil to serve
