God I love crisps. Like really love them. Posh Kettle Chips (have you tried the pesto flavour?!) or the downright toxic pickled onion Space Raiders of my youth. Crisps are my diet Kryptonite. So, to that end, here are my Kale Crisps which satisfy my cravings for a savoury, salty crunch (on a sweeter note I’ve just discovered these sweet fruit crisps from Nims which are AMAZING – thanks to DeluxeBite).
The secret is using the best olive oil you can afford and a liberal sprinkling of Maldon sea salt. I have also tried using chilli-infused oil and garlic-infused oil, both of which were fab, too.
Ingredients
A bag of sliced Kale
Good extra virgin olive oil
Maldon sea salt
Method
Preheat oven at 190 degrees C.
Scatter the kale on a baking sheet, tearing off any large bits of stalk. Make sure they are all in one layer so they cook evenly.
Douse with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss, then lay flat again.
Pop in the oven for 10-15 mins until the edges are crisp but not too brown.
Serve!
[…] now (WONDER ingredient, if you don’t know it’s virtues read here) and snack on these kale crisps. So far, nothing too ‘out there’. All stuff you can get in your supermarket of […]
Doing this at the weekend! Thank you from one crisp fiend to another.
They are soooooo moreish, just make sure you don’t use too much oil and leave them in long enough to be crisp but not browned. Even my carb-loving Italian husband is addicted! CF x
