Nutritional values

Did you know that Kale provides more vitamin C than lemons? The ascorbic acid supports the immune system and inhibits inflammation. Tofu is made from the protein-rich soybean and scores with many secondary plant substances - the isoflavones, for example, regulate fluctuating hormone levels. A lot of potassium is found in Pumpkin. The mineral has a blood pressure-lowering effect and is also a gentle diuretic.

Even out of season for pumpkin and kale, you can see the kale with smoked tofu as inspiration: Then you can replace the pumpkin with sweet potatoes or carrots and the kale with spinach or chard.

Preparation steps

1.

Clean kale, wash, cut green from hard leaf veins and cook in boiling salted water for 2 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water and drain. Peel and finely dice garlic. Cut tofu into approx. 1-inch cubes and toss in cornstarch.

2.

Cut pumpkin pulp into pieces and cook in boiling salted water for 8-10 minutes until tender.

Meanwhile, in a deep skillet or wok, heat half of the sesame oil. Sauté kale in it for about 3 minutes over medium heat; then remove and set aside. While still hot, stir-fry tofu in remaining sesame oil in a wok or skillet for 3-4 minutes until golden brown on all sides. Add soy sauce and garlic and fry for another 2 minutes.

Drain pumpkin, puree, season with salt, cayenne pepper and lime juice. Divide puree among plates and arrange kale and tofu on top.
