Steamed Kale

Kale is a  cruciferous vegetable packed with nutrients that helps to lower the cholesterol and cut down the risk of cancer. It has higher content of Vitamin A, C and K along with other nutrients. I read that Kale, when  steamed yield very good benefits rather than eating raw.

Ingredients

 Kale                    -   1 bunch

 Coconut pieces    - few

 Lemon Juice        - 1tsp

 Salt

Seasoning

 Olive Oil            - 1 tsp

 Mustard Seeds  -1/2 tsp

 Urad Dal           - ½ tsp

 Cumin Seeds     -1/2 tsp

 Red Chili           -1

 Coconut pieces  - few

Method:

  

            Wash the kale in cold water. Chop the kale including its stem. Steam it in a steamer or Idli cooker. Just to give a little Indian touch, give tadka with the ingredients under seasoning, add steamed kale, sprinkle some salt, add lemon juice and coconut pieces and serve.
