- Heat a wok or heavy skillet (not non-stick) over highest heat til just begins to smoke. Add oil til hot enough that you cannot hold your hand over the oil. Quickly add the kale and stirfry a few minutes til tender. Transfer to a bowl and cool. Add edamame and lemon sesame aioli, and tamari to taste. Set aside for an hour.
- Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Combine kale mixture with smoked fish,pomegranate,tobiko . Combine gently so as not to break up the fish. Plate and Garnish with black sesame seeds.
- Note: Tamari has a deeper, richer and more complex flavor than soy sauce.
- * Tobiko is tiny crunchy bright orange flying fish roe. They have a lovely mild taste of the sea. They are great for adding texture and as a coloful garnish.They can be found in the refrigerated or frozen section of most Asian markets.rnBlack sesame seeds are also in Asian markets.
- Combine all thoroughly with a fork. Adjust seasoning .
