Tips
Kale is eaten in January, February and March. It is considered a “superfood” because of its high vitamin A content: a few leaves are enough to cover your daily requirement of vitamin A, which is essential for healthy eyes and skin, as well as for a well-functioning immune system. Kale is also rich in vitamin C, vitamin K and calcium. This vegetarian stampot, served with halloumi, a Cypriot cheese made from goat’s and sheep’s milk, will therefore provide you with a good supply of vitamins and minerals and will warm you up in winter!
