Kale Pakora

A crispy side-dish for every occasion.

Serves: 4
Cost per person: 1 zl (around 0.20 GBP)

Ingredients:

- Kale (leaves only, no stalks)
- 1 mild red chilli pepper finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons of gram (chickpea) flour
- 1 tablespoon of rice flour
- 1 tsp curry powder
- pinch of salt
- oil for frying

Let's rock!

1. Prep the kale and wash

2. Prep the ingredients for the batter. If you don't have chickpea flour, you can use plain white flour. Rice flour could be substituted for potato flour.

3. Add water to form a batter - not too thick or too thin.

4. Add enough kale to the batter so that all the leaves are nicely coated

5. Heat up some vegetable oil in a pan for deep frying. Get the oil nice and hot. Turn up the gas to max. Do the bread cube test - drop in a piece of old bread and if it starts bubbling immediately then the oil is hot enough.

6. Fry the kale until starting to turn golden and crispy

7. Drain on kitchen paper

Enjoy!
