Description

A great appetiser to die for!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon ghee, butter, or extra virgin olive oil (I’ve used them all), plus more for spreading on bread
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 23 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 bunch of kale, deveined and torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • a few ounces of goat cheese, crumbled
  • 24 slices good-quality sour dough bread, or bread of choice (Depending on the size of the bread-pictured above are small slices, in which case you’d use four.  I’ve used bigger slices, too, when you’d only need two.)

Instructions

  1. Heat your ghee (or butter or EVOO) in a large skillet over medium heat.  Add the diced onion and cook until softened and starting to brown, about 5 minutes or so.  Add the garlic and let it cook with the onion for another minute. Add the kale and sprinkle with kosher salt and then add the lemon juice.  Stir it around so the onion and kale are mixed, then cover to steam the kale for about 2-3 minutes.  Your kale should be wilted and bright green.  Stir in the smoked paprika.
  2. Spread some ghee, butter, or EVOO onto your bread slices and place them on a cookie sheet.  Toast them using your oven’s broiler, about 1-2 minutes per side.  Watch them carefully so as not to burn the bread!
  3. Now divide your kale mixture evenly among your bread slices and top with the crumbled goat cheese. Devour it!
