Provided by Denise J

Categories     Vegan

Time 45m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 medium apple, julienned thinly, tossed in
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 cups julienned kale leaves, stems discarded (red Russian or tuscan kale is great)
1 1/2 cups grated carrots
1 cup thinly sliced and julienned fennel bulb
1/4 cup craisins
1/4 cup almonds, sliced
2/3 cup almonds, ground (ground almond flour, found in the bulk section of grocery stores)
2 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2/3 cup water
1 small garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • I start by making the dressing first in a high speed blender until smooth, then mixing it throughly with the kale to help soften it. The dressing includes the almond flour, vinegar, maple syrup, water, garlic, mustard, salt, pepper and curry powder.
  • After the kale has been mixed with the dressing, toss the remaining ingredients with the kale. It is better if it sits a while before eating so the flavors can blend, but it is not essential. If you cannot find ground almond flour, you can use raw whole almonds but it will take more powerful blending to make it into a smooth and creamy dressing.

LEMON-GARLIC KALE SALAD



Lemon-Garlic Kale Salad image

Here's a snappy, fresh side dish or a light supper: a lemony green salad, rich with tang and crunch. The dressing is nothing more than lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and salt. Its simplicity makes it perfect.

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, salads and dressings

Time 25m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups sliced almonds
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 2 to 4 lemons)
Kosher salt
1 1/2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, crushed with the flat side of a knife, peeled and left whole
10 to 12 ounces washed and dried kale leaves, thick stems removed (weight after trimming)
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan (optional)

Steps:

  • In a toaster oven or skillet, toast almonds until golden brown and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
  • In a bowl, combine lemon juice and 1 heaping teaspoon salt. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Add garlic cloves and set aside to steep.
  • Working in batches, cut the kale into thin ribbons: gather a large handful of leaves, bunch together tightly, and use the other hand to slice into 1/4-inch-thick pieces. This need not be done very precisely or neatly; the idea is to end up with a kind of slaw. (Recipe can be made up to this point 1 day ahead. Keep kale and dressing refrigerated separately.)
  • Place chopped kale in a very large bowl. Sprinkle surface with almonds and then with cheese, if using. Remove and discard garlic cloves from dressing. Pour half the dressing over the salad and toss. Taste for dressing and salt and add more as needed, tossing to coat thoroughly. Serve within 1 hour.

Tips:

  • For a more intense curry flavor, toast the almonds before adding them to the dressing.
  • If you don't have curry powder, you can substitute a mixture of cumin, coriander, and turmeric.
  • To make the dressing ahead of time, simply whisk together the ingredients and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Kale slaw is a versatile dish that can be served as a side salad, a main course salad, or a topping for tacos or sandwiches.
  • For a vegetarian or vegan kale slaw, omit the chicken and use a plant-based mayonnaise.

Conclusion:

Kale slaw is a healthy and delicious salad that is perfect for any occasion. The curried almond dressing adds a unique and flavorful twist to this classic dish. With its crunchy kale, sweet carrots, and creamy dressing, kale slaw is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
