Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5 and line two baking sheets with baking parchment. Put the kale in a large bowl and toss with the oil, garlic, cloves, star anise, cinnamon and plenty of seasoning. Spread the kale mixture over the prepared sheets in a single layer, then roast for 15-20 mins, tossing halfway through, until the leaves are crisp and any stalks are tender – keep a close eye on the kale, as it can catch quite quickly. Leave to cool.
step 2
Meanwhile, make the dressing. Whisk the orange zest and juice, vinegar and oil together, then stir in the chestnuts and sultanas. Toss the dressing with the kale and serve.
