King Julian my best vegan kale and spinach recipe

Strangely enough it tastes like chorizo macaroni and cheese, and if you like me and hate kale, this 1 is for you. OK, you may be wondering about the name, it sounds like a Madagascar character. My mother came to visit me and tried to impress my family and I with a Vegan meal, and this is it. When I asked her to show me how to make it she told me to Julian slice the sweet potato, which I thought was a bit funny so I called it king Julian.

First thing is to soak the cashews, about 330g in boiling water and 6 garlic cloves, just pour boiling water over the cashews till they just covered.

This meal doesn't take long to cook so you can start cooking rice or pasta, I used rice to keep it a little healthier.

Take about 250g chickpeas and fry till a little brown

So you need two onions and a hole red pepper.

Chop

Once the chickpeas are brown, throw in the onions

Mix and chuck in red pepper

Grab yourself a sweet potato

Peel and grate

Then I Take two heaped teaspoons of bullion powder

Mix it with 500ml water and pour into pan

Then two teaspoons ground coriander

One teaspoon smoked paprika

Then and another 400ml of water and heat till simmering

The sweet potato has to cook until it is soft because it is going to make the sauce, so about 10 to 15 minutes. While that is cooking cooking you can prepare the kale about 200g, I used black kale.

The stems are the worst bits, so they go. I just wash the kale and carefully cut out the stems like so.

Then I chop it this way and that, and pow

I know that it looks like a lot but it cooks away.

Then add 250g washed spinach

Yet again, I know it looks like loads, but it is not.
Let that cook for 5 minutes. While it is cooking blend the cashews, add 30g nutritional yeast flakes.

Blend and pour in pan

Mix and kazam

Dish up and skof down

Give it a shot, it's awesome.
