1 large bunch kale, washed, stems and large veins removed
2 cups light vegetable oil (such as canola or peanut oil) for
frying
1/2 teaspoon salt
Pinch of sugar substitute
1. Pat kale leaves thoroughly dry with paper towels. Stack
four or five leaves, roll up into a tight cylinder and slice
thinly (about 1/8" wide).
2. Heat oil in a large skillet just to the smoke point (about
360F on a candy thermometer). Add small handfuls of
kale and stir gently 20 to 30 seconds. Remove with a
strainer and drain on paper towels. Repeat until all kale
is used.
3. Gently toss kale leaves with salt and sugar substitute.
Serve immediately.
These crispy, delicate fried leaves make a delicious, nutritious,
crunchy vegetable bed for grilled salmon or other rich fish. Light
as air, they also make great snacks. A Chinese-style strainer,
with its broad ladle shape and open design, is a great kitchen
tool for frying. Atkins - Deep-Fried Kale
