1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic -- minced
1 small onion -- halved and sliced thin
1 can water chestnuts -- (7 ounce) drained and thinly sliced
3 shiitake mushrooms -- sliced (if using dried, soak, discard the stems and slice)
1 pound kale -- washed and cut into large pieces
1 teaspoon mirin -- (or seasoned brown rice vinegar)
1 teaspoon tamari -- (or high quality soy sauce)
Freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic and onions and sauté until onions are translucent. Be careful not to brown garlic or it will give a bitter taste.
Add water chestnuts and shiitake mushrooms. Sauté for 3 minutes. Add kale and sauté for 1 minute. Add mirin, tamari and pepper and sauté until kale is tender.

Ingredient Options: Combine several types of greens. Add 1 tablespoon of brown rice syrup along with the tamari. Use chard and add a cup of
drained, chopped tomatoes after adding the greens. Top greens with
chopped, roasted walnuts.
AuthorNote: Kale is a chefs' favorite for simple leafy green sautés. The dark bluish-green, finely curled leaves are a visual treat while the mild, slightly peppery flavor blends with garlic, water chestnuts and mushrooms for a delightful dish. Also try chard, beet greens, mustard greens, spinach or a mixture of several varieties.
