    Categories: Filipino, Vegetables
    Yield: 4 Servings

    2 tb Oil
    1 Onion; diced
    4 cl Garlic; minced
    1 Fresh ginger piece (1");
    -peeled and minced
    1 Thai chili peppers; up to 2;
    -split in half lengthwise
    -with stems intact
    1 tb Fermented shrimp paste
    1 lb Kale (500 g); washed,
    -center ribs and stems
    -removed, leaves roughly
    -chopped
    1/2 c Shrimp stock or water (125
    -ml)
    1 1/2 c Coconut milk (375 ml)
    Salt; to taste
    Freshly ground black pepper;
    -to taste

    Preparation time: 15 minutes
    Cooking time: 25 minutes

    Heat a large wok or saute pan over high heat until a drop of water
    sizzles and evaporates on contact. Swirl the oil into the pan, and
    then add the onion and stir-fry until the pieces wilt and begin to
    lightly brown, 2-3 minutes.

    Add the garlic, ginger, chili peppers, and shrimp paste to the pan
    and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

    Toss the kale into the pan, and then cook and stir until the kale
    cooks down and wilts, 1-2 minutes.

    Pour the shrimp stock and coconut milk into the pan and stir to
    combine. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low and simmer,
    uncovered, until the kale is tender, 10-15 minutes. Season to taste
    with salt and black pepper. Serve with steamed white rice.

    Notes:
    * You can substitute shrimp paste for 1 tb fish sauce when
    adding the coconut milk and water.
    * Conventionally made with fresh or dried taro leaves.
