The recipe says that you can either do this with cabbage,
kale or sprouts. We did it with cabbage but I think it would be delicious with
any of the others. The sprouts would go a bit mashy and that would be quite
nice. It also says that it is ‘absolutely excellent with a poached egg’ so we
did a poached egg and it WAS excellent.
It took no time to make and if you were doing it with
genuine leftovers (which I wasn’t) I think you could be eating in about 15
minutes. Honestly. It tasted great and felt pretty healthy because it looks
like a massive plate of greens, which it basically is. You wouldn’t want to
make this for a dinner party as it’s not much of a looker but as a week night
dinner it was awesome. Ben said he felt like he could eat it forever. Unlike
the Chilli where you just wanted it to end so you didn’t have to take the pain
anymore.
Also, Amy and I realised today that all the bad recipes
that she has made came from the ‘store-cupboard suppers’ section of the book
but I am pleased to say that this was from the same section and it was great!
Will make again.
