Queen Carlin Peas

In collaboration with Hodmedod, these Queen Carlin Peas are some of thest of British-grown beans. Slowly cooked with a soft, delicate texture + nutty flavour, they’re a British substitution to a chickpea.

Directions

step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
step 2
Put the kale and almonds into a roasting tray and toss with the olive oil, a good pinch of sea salt and plenty of cracked black pepper. Roast for 25-30 minutes until the kale is slightly charred and the almonds turning golden, tossing half-way through.
step 3
Meanwhile, add all the dressing ingredients to a mixing bowl and mix well to combine. You may need to add a splash of water to loosen, you’re looking for a drizzle-able consistency.
step 4
Once the kale is looking crispy, tip into a large mixing bowl with the almonds followed by the carlin peas and dates. Drizzle over the dressing and toss well to coat.
step 5
Serve as a light salad for lunch or as a side-dish to something richer like a cauliflower cheese, or have with sausages or roast chicken.
