Pour oil in a Dutch

oven or deep skillet (need about 2 inches of oil)

drizzle warm honey over the top and a squeeze of lemon

Kale Fried Rice- this is a lazy version of Gwen Paltrow's which is also delicious

1 clove of garlic
1 shallot
about a tbs of minced ginger

Steam rice with one clove of garlic and set aside
Fry Kale, shallots and ginger in coconut oil until kale is wilted
Add rice wine vinegar and deglaze
reduce heat to low and add in rice and sesame oil
