Fried Kale with Mushrooms and Bacon image

Voted Members' Choice! Such a wonderfully savory side dish! This recipe reminded me a bit of the spinach salad with hot bacon dressing that my grandma used to make... only modernized to the max! Enjoy.

Categories     Vegetables

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch fresh kale, chopped
1 c white mushrooms, sliced
4 slice bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 medium yellow onion, diced
1 Tbsp minced garlic
2 tsp turmeric, ground
2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
1 Tbsp butter
1-2 tsp lemon juice, fresh squeezed

Steps:

  • 1. Fry up the bacon and then set aside. Sauté the onions in oil and butter for a few minutes and then add your mushrooms. Let them cook down for 5 minutes and then add your chopped up kale, garlic, vinegar and turmeric. Cover with a lid for about 30 minutes on a medium heat; stirring occasionally.
  • 2. Give it a stir 2 or 3 times while waiting for kale to cook down. I added a 1/4 cup of water because it seemed too dry in the pan. Crumble your bacon and add to your pan. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The kale was tender but still had a bit of a bite to it, and the mushrooms and bacon were cooked to perfection. I served it over rice and it was a hit with my family.

This dish was absolutely delicious! The kale was crispy and flavorful, the mushrooms were earthy and savory, and the bacon added a nice salty crunch. I will definitely be making this again.
