Ginger Kale Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium skillet, cook the ginger root in oil, stirring, over medium heat for 1 minute.
• Add the kale and raise the heat to medium high.
• Add the soy sauce and water, and stir-fry until the kale is wilted but still slightly crunchy, about 3 minutes.
• Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Serve warm or cold.
• You may substitute spinach or bok choy for the kale.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
• Add kale and boil for 2-3 minutes, until slightly wilted. Drain in a colander.
• In a large skillet or wok, heat oil and butter, add garlic, onion and ginger, and sauté until onion is softened.
• Add kale, tossing until combined.
• Cover and cook on low heat just until kale is tender.
• Sprinkle with lime juice and toss. Grind fresh pepper over kale and serve.

Steps:

• Dressing:
• Heat broiler. Broil ginger in its skin, turning once, until very dark brown and beginning to scorch in places and a paring knife passes through the center with relative ease, 40-50 minutes (if skin is getting too dark before flesh is tender, turn down the heat or move to the oven). Let cool; slice (leave on the skin).
• Pulse ginger, chile, garlic, fish sauce, sugar, oil, and 2 Tbsp. water in a food processor, adding additional water by tablespoonfuls if needed, until a smooth paste forms.
• Assembly:
• Toss kale and 1/4 cup dressing in a large bowl to coat; massage with your fingers until kale is slightly softened.
• Toss English and Persian cucumbers, onion, lime juice, and sugar in a medium bowl to combine; season generously with salt. Let sit 10 minutes to allow cucumbers and onion to soften slightly.
• Add cucumber mixture to bowl with kale and toss to combine, adding additional dressing if desired. Serve topped with cilantro and fried onions.
• Do Ahead
• Dressing can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.

Steps:

• Whisk together vinegar, juice, soy sauce, honey, and ginger in a small bowl. Add oil slowly, whisking constantly until incorporated.
• Put kale in a large bowl. Drizzle with dressing, and mix well. Using your hands, massage kale until softened, wilted, and reduced in volume by about half.

Steps:

• Mix half the ginger with the soy, honey and five-spice in a shallow dish. Add the pork steaks and turn in the mixture to coat. Grill for 6-8 mins, turning once, until the pork is cooked and nicely browned.
• Meanwhile, cook the noodles following pack instructions. Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan, then quickly fry the remaining ginger with the kale and chilli for 2 mins until wilted. Drain the noodles and add to the pan, tossing everything together. Serve with the pork steaks.
