Background

Buckwheat is one of the superfoods so we should eat it regularly. It’s perfect as a side dish ( instead of rice) or you can use it for salads, stews and soups. This buckwheat with kale and chickpeas requires some ready-made tomato sauce (your own or shop-bought), then it’s ready within 20 minutes.

Ingredients

½ cup buckwheat
1 cup water
1 tin chickpeas
1 cup chopped cavolo nero or kale
½ cup tomato sauce (home-made or shop bought)

Instructions

Put the buckwheat and water in a pan. Bring to the boil and cook for about 15-20 minutes until the water has completely absorbed. Put a lid on and rest for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile steam the kale over boiling water. Rinse & drain the chickpeas.
If you want to eat this dish warm, then heat the tomato sauce in a pan.
Mix the tomato sauce with the buckwheat, then fold in the chickpeas and kale.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
