The Darling of the North Americas

kale crisp

Kale Chips or Crisps as we defiantly call them in the old country. They are enormously popular (if food blog agglomerators are anything to go by) but frankly I don't get it.

You know the routine; wash and tear your kale into bite sized pieces, shake nicely dry. Spray or sprinkle a little good oil over the pieces and toss to coat well then toast in a hot oven for 10 minutes or so until crisp. Season with salt and get wildly excited. Or not.

I ate mine but next time, if one should ever arise, I'll be tempted to season with a sugar/salt mixture as the Chinese restaurants of Old Blighty do to their 'Crispy Fried Seaweed'.
