Braised Kale with White Beans and Tomato
Report
Braised kale and tender white beans make a hearty, healthy side dish. The tomato balances the flavors. Goes really nicely with grilled shrimp, grilled octopus, chicken, pork, beef and lamb.

Ingredients
- 1 pound dried navy beans
- 2 large cloves garlic
- 1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
- scant ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 ounce can diced tomatoes
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 ½ tablespoons duck fat can substitute olive oil or butter
- 2 cups finely chopped kale tough stems removed
Garnish:
- Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
Instructions
- Sort through the beans, discarding any pebbles or stones that may have inadvertently gotten through the sorting process. Cover with one inch of water, cover with a lid and let rest 8 hours or overnight.
- Drain the water and rinse the beans. Add the beans back to the pot and cover with another inch of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, cover the pot and cook until the beans become tender, about 1 1/2-2 hours. There should still be about 1/4" of water covering the beans. If not, add more water until they're just barely covered.
- Stir in the diced garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, bay leaf and tomatoes. Braise for 10-15 minutes, until the flavors start to meld.
- Add the duck fat and kale. Stir to combine and braise another 5 minutes or so, just until the kale is tender. Serve with parmesan cheese.
