A simple but seriously good side dish of garlicky, buttery kale. We’ve used chilli and lemon too for extra zing and spice.

For an alternative, take a look at this warm salad of kale, roast squash and lentils.

Method

  1. Trim and discard the tough stalks from the kale and roughly chop the leaves. Rinse well, then shake dry.
  2. Melt the butter in a large heavy-based frying pan and gently fry the garlic, chilli flakes and lemon zest with a little salt and freshly ground black pepper for 3-4 minutes until soft but not browned. Add the kale and stir for about 5 minutes over a medium heat until just wilted. Add a little of the lemon juice, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
