Inspired by a Jamie Oliver recipe, Braised Peas with Spring Onions and Lettuce, I tweaked and twirled and danced a jig when this evolved in my kitchen last night …

The simplicity of this dish is divine.

The ingredients are for a dish for one, or a side dish for two.

1 medium brown onion
2 cups kale leaves (stalk removed)
6 outer leaves of radicchio
1/2 cup pine nuts
2 tablespoons coconut oil
Ground black pepper
Pinch of dried chilli flakes
Juice of half a lemon

Melt the coconut oil in a large frypan on a medium heat

When hot, add finely chopped onion with the pepper and chilli and allow to cook for a few minutes

When the onion is starting to become translucent, add finely sliced kale and radicchio and the pine nuts and fry for a few minutes.

And that’s it!! Cook till it starts to get slightly browned and the pine nuts start to toast and then squeeze the lemon over the top.

I served it with some left-over baked salmon pieces I had in the fridge. But it would be delightful on its own or with any other protein you feel to enjoy it with.

Much love, Sarah
