This side dish is super quick to make and will go with just about any East Asian main you care to add it to. The kale is fried on a medium-high heat in sesame oil until wilted, then tomatoes and garlic are added to give a wonderful vibrant colour and flavour. The dressing is poured on after cooking, just as you would a salad.
You can also have this as a light lunch with some gluten-free bread, or serve it over some rice noodles for a simple and pleasing dish.
