  • 2 tbsp tamari
  • 2 tbsp vegetable/coconut oil
  • 1-2 organic, free range eggs (optional)
  • Chilli flakes (optional)

Method:

  1. Cook the brown rice according to instructions, set aside.
  2. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the onions, stirring until soft and translucent (4-5 minutes). Add garlic and sauté for a further 2-3 minutes. Add the kale and stir until wilted.
  3. Add the rice and cook for another two minutes, stirring.
