Ingredients
Charred Kale
- 1 Tbsp olive oil, divided
- 1 garlic clove, smashed (optional)
- 6 oyster mushrooms (or mushrooms of your choice), torn
- 1 Tbsp gluten-free tamari
- Bunch of cavolo nero or curly kale, torn and woody stems removed
- Handful of baby spinach (optional)
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Dressing
- 4 Tbsp tahini
- Juice of 1 orange or lemon
- 1⁄2 tsp grated fresh ginger
- 1⁄2 tsp sea salt
Serving
- 1 avocado (optional)
- 2 tsp sesame seeds or za’atar
Directions
- Heat half of the oil in a large skillet over a medium–high heat. Add garlic (if using), followed by mushrooms, and sauté for a couple of minutes on each side until mushrooms start to brown and crunch up. Add tamari and give everything a toss, and then push mushrooms to side of pan.
- Add kale and spinach, if using, to other side of pan, along with remaining oil. Sauté undisturbed for about 1 minute until charred and crunchy, and then toss to sauté on other side. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix together dressing ingredients.
- Divide tahini dressing between 2 bowls and swirl around so it covers sides of bowls. Add kale/spinach, and then top with mushroom shreds, avocado, if using, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds or za’atar.
