Ingredients

  • cacao nibs (50g)
  • grapefruit (1)
  • truffle oil (15ml)

  • quinoa (100g)
  • kale (100g)
  • pistachios (50g)

Kitchen Tools

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • saucepan
  • citrus juicer
  • microplane grater

Preparation

I start by cooking the quinoa according to the package instructions, then set it aside to cool. Next, I finely chop the kale and black garlic, creating a vibrant green and black mixture. I then segment the grapefruit and reserve the juice for later use.

In a saucepan, I heat the truffle oil and add the kale and black garlic, sautéing until fragrant. I then stir in the cooked quinoa, cacao nibs, and pistachios, creating a rich, nutty base for the dish.

To finish off the dish, I add the grapefruit segments and a splash of grapefruit juice, adding a bright and refreshing element to the mix. I give everything a final toss to combine all the flavors, ensuring each bite is bursting with unique tastes.

Serving

This innovative dish weighs approximately 600g once cooked and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 150g and contains an estimated 300 calories.

Clever Tip

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt and a drizzle of honey before serving. This will enhance the sweet and savory notes of the dish, taking it to the next level of deliciousness!

I hope you give this recipe a try and let your taste buds take a flavorful journey like never before. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and make this dish your own. Bon appétit!
