Warm soba with ginger, spring onion and kale

Method

  1. Peel the ginger and cut it into thin matchsticks, slice the spring onions and crush the garlic. Strip the kale from the stalks and tear it into pieces.
  2. Boil the buckwheat noodles for the time on the packet, adding the kale for the last minute. Drain, keeping a splash of the cooking water, and rinse the noodles briefly.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a wok or large frying pan over a medium heat. Cook the ginger, white parts of the spring onions and garlic for 2 minutes until soft and fragrant.
  4. Add the noodles and kale with the tamari and the splash of cooking water and toss for 1 minute.
  5. Take off the heat and stir in the sesame oil and the juice of half the lime.
  6. Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan for 1 to 2 minutes.
  7. Serve topped with the green spring onion, sesame seeds and a wedge of the remaining lime.

Tip If you have no kale, use cavolo nero, spring greens or chard, with the tough stalks removed.
