- 1 bag of curly kale leaves (about 5 leaves)
- 3.5 tbsp Cashew Cream (mine was quite thick)
- 1 tbsp toum (or garlic paste, and add ½ tbsp olive oil extra)
- 1 tbsp dried thyme
- 2 tsp mild curry powder (or hot, if you prefer)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp water (optional)
- rip all the soft bits of the stem, roughly tear them up (you want them to fit in your dehydrator) and place in a large bowl
- in a small bowl, mix all the other ingredients except for the water
- pour the mixture over the kale and use your hands to coat all bits and pieces
- if you find the cashew mix is a tad too thick and the leaves have too many dry spots, add the water to the kale in the bowl and massage again
- place pieces on your dehydrator trays (without sheet but with mesh)
- put trays in dehydrator and run it at 45 or 46C for a few hours; check now and then to see if the leaves have the desired crispiness. If you prefer to dehydrate at a lower temp, it will just take a bit longer. If you have very curly bits, you may want to turn them over during drying.
