Kale with Spice Relish Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup seeded and diced tomatoes

1/2 cup minced poblano or Hungarian wax pepper (or other mild chile pepper)

1/2 cup minced red onion

1 clove garlic, minced

2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 3/4 pounds kale

 

Method

Combine tomato, pepper, onion, garlic, vinegar, and olive oil; cover and let stand at room temperature at least 1 hour. (Or refrigerate overnight; bring to room temperature before serving).

 

Trim 1/4 inch off stem ends of kale leaves; use a sharp knife to cut leaves away from stems and thick center ribs. Rinse kale and shake off excess water. Cut into bite-size pieces.

 

Add 1/2 cup water to a heavy large skillet or Dutch oven, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add kale; cover, reduce heat, and cook 20 minutes or until kale is tender, stirring occasionally.

 

To serve, spoon tomato relish over each serving of kale.
