Servings 4

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 medium carrots about ½ pound, thinly sliced on the bias
  • 1 small head green cabbage 1 pound, thinly sliced
  • 1 small garlic clove minced
  • 1 teaspooon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • One 15-ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • ¼ cup harissa
  • One 15-ounce can cannellini or white beans
  • 2 tablespoons butter or ghee optional
  • 1 bunch fresh kale finely chopped or 2 cups chopped frozen kale
  • 4 large eggs optional

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Sauté the cabbage and carrots until softened and starting to brown, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic, salt and paprika. Continue to cook for a few minutes, until fragrant. Stir in the tomatoes and harissa, scraping up any brown bits that may have formed. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the tomatoes have released some moisture and begun to soften. Fold in the white beans, butter or ghee, if using, and the kale. Cook for a few more minutes, until the greens have wilted but are still vibrant.
  • For the eggs, if using: with your spoon, create 4 wells in the bean mixture and crack the eggs into each one. Cover the pan and simmer until the whites are set but the yolks are still giggly, about 6 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and serve immediately.
