  • 1 tsp. minced fresh ginger (or ½ tsp. ground ginger)
  • 1 large clove garlic, peeled and minced
  • 1½ tsp. lemongrass paste (found in the produce section; may substitute 2 tsp. lime juice + 1 tsp. lemon juice if can’t find or for Whole30-compliant)
  • 1/4 tsp. sea salt
  • 6-7 cups kale, torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 medium carrot (~3/4 cup), peeled and shredded or julienned

Instruction

  • Combine dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk well to combine. Set aside.
  • Place kale in a large bowl and sprinkle with sea salt. Using your hands, massage the kale with a kneading motion until leaves start to wilt and become slightly shiny or wet-looking (about 2-3 minutes).
  • Add carrots through cilantro, then pour dressing over all. Toss to combine.
  • Garnish with chopped cashews just before serving. Serve with lime wedges.
