Method

  1. Toast the hazelnuts in a dry frying pan over a medium heat for 5-10 mins, stirring often, until toasted. Tip onto a board, chop, then set aside.
  2. Melt the butter in the empty pan over a medium heat and fry the garlic for 1 min or until fragrant. Add the cavolo nero and a pinch of salt, cook for 2 mins using tongs to turn the leaves, then add a splash of water and cook for 1 more min or until softened, stirring often.
  3. Remove from the heat, squeeze over the lemon juice, stir, then scatter with the lemon zest and hazelnuts to serve. Any leftovers will keep for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the fridge.
