Kale, Braised (P, KLP)
Source: Vegetarian Times
Serves:8

2 large bunches fresh kale, washed in cold water
2 small scallions, finely minced
2 tablespoons margarine
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
White pepper to taste

Destem kale by holding stem with one hand and tearing leafy portion away from you with the other hand. Discard stems and ribs; julienne.

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add kale; cook, uncovered 1 minute (taste a shred it may need another minute). Place in colander; run under cold water to stop cooking. Drain well; refrigerate (if desired, this step can be done the day before).

Just before serving, melt margarine in a large nonstick skillet. Add scallions; sauté 1 minute. Add kale; sprinkle with salt, sugar and pepper. Reheat gently 2 minutes, tossing carefully. Serve immediately.
