It’s no exaggeration to say that kale has reigned supreme in the superfood world for the past few years. We’ve blended it in smoothies, and added it to salads, but our favourite way of serving this dark leafy green is as a chip. Kale chips are crunchy and lip-smackingly delicious, but unfortunately many store bought varieties are more additives than actual kale. Luckily, Donna Hay has shared her nutritious, fresh and simple sesame-roasted kale with nori salt recipe so you can make them yourself.
