Ingredients

  • 100g curly kale, thick stems removed
  • 200g soft cheese

  • 80g bacon lardons or pancetta cubes
  • 20g pine nuts
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Method

  1. Finely shred the kale, then put in a bowl. Sprinkle with a good pinch of fine salt, then massage it into the kale for a few minutes until tender and releasing liquid – this makes it less chewy. Set aside.
  2. Heat the grill to medium-high. In a bowl, stir together the soft cheese and harissa, then season. Spread the mixture on the flatbreads, top with the kale and sprinkle with the lardons and pine nuts.
  3. Drizzle with oil, then pop under the grill for 6-8 minutes, until the bacon is crisp.
