Just a minor detail. The ingredients list walnuts, but then the instructions have you add pine nuts.

Any other readers from Australia care to fill me in on where Kale can be bought, or what it can be substituted with? Or whether it’s called something different here?
I hadn’t heard of it, and all the shops I went to hadn’t heard of it either.

I just made this the other night, and I’m pleased to report that this isn’t half bad! Also keep in mind that I ate it cold, so I’d have to guess that if you plated and ate it immediately (as the instructions suggest!) it would be close to excellent.

Kale is called kale in Australia, all the hippies eat it so most organic veggie shops will have it. It’s peak season is autumn so it pretty much in all the veggie shops now. I get mine from the radical food store in brunswick, Melbourne.

I made this dish with a twist. Instead of walnuts and lemon juice, I added a tablespoon of curry powder along with some sauteed chicken and two teaspoons of almond butter. Came out awesome.
