Serves 1

Method

  1. Turn on your oven grill to 220 degrees.

  2. Melt a tsp of oil in a frying pan and once heated, add the garlic and diced onion. Fry gently for 1 minute.

  3. Add the mushrooms and fry for a further few minutes on a medium heat before adding the cavolo nero. If you find that the oil has dried up, add 1-2 tbsp of water.

  4. Whilst the ingredients are cooking in the pan, drizzle some olive oil over the slices of sourdough and grill for 5 minutes until lightly toasted.

  5. Add the coconut yoghurt to the frying pan along with a dash of salt. Give it a good stir for 1 minute so that all of the ingredients in the pan are covered and the yoghurt has had chance to warm through.

  6. Serve the sourdough onto a plate and top with all of the ingredients in the pan. To garnish, sprinkle over your choice of fresh herbs (Parsley or Thyme work well).
