Servings: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 100 g Fresh kale
- 1 Golden apple
- 1 Peach
- 10 Cherries
- 1 Lemon
- 1 Tbsp Green olives
- ½ Cup Walnuts
Dressing
- 1 tsp Water
- 3 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 3 tsp Balsamic vinegar
- ½ tsp Dijon Mustard
- 1 tsp Honey
- Pinch Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Dressing: Prepare a small bowl to make the salad dressing. Add 1 tsp water in the bowl. Add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard and honey in the bowl. Add a tiny pinch of salt and pepper. Mix them thoroughly and put it aside.
- Preparation: Rinse the kale and the fruits. Remove the stems as it can be tough and fibrous. You can lay the leaf flat and cut along the edge of the stem. If you have the baby kale, you can just remove the tip of the stem. Stack up the kale leaves on top of each other, roll them up and slice them in 0.5cm / 0.2 inch thickness. Then turn the board around to chop them again in same thickness. Add the kale leaves in a salad bowl. *Massage into the kale leaves with the salad dressing. This process will make the kale leaves soft and subdue the bitterness from them. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Add to a bowl: Slice the apple and peach in small cubes. Slice the cherries and remove the pits. Chop the seedless olives into chunky bits. Crush/blend the walnuts. Add all the ingredients in the salad bowl, squeeze the lemon juice. Stir to mix and serve.
