Discovering the Delight of Sweet Potato Noodles with Kale and Walnut Sage Sauce

Combine coconut milk, fresh sage leaves, pure maple syrup, and 1/3 cup of chopped walnuts to create a unique blend. Set aside.
Heat a spacious skillet over a moderate flame to a medium temperature. Add one tablespoon of olive oil to the pan, followed by a finely chopped shallot, and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the shallot is tender and translucent, stirring occasionally. Infuse the dish with the pungent flavor of garlic by adding it to the pan and cooking for a tantalizing 30 seconds. Subsequently, introduce curly-leafed kale into the mixture and allow it to simmer for five minutes, ensuring the greens retain a satisfying crunch amidst tenderizing.
Walnut sage sauce added; cooked for an additional minute to ensure the flavors are thoroughly incorporated and the sauce is heated through.
While sautéing in a moderate-sized skillet, incorporate one tablespoon of olive oil and stir-fry the sweet potato noodles for approximately five minutes, ensuring consistent stirring throughout the cooking process. Add two tablespoons of water to generate a gentle steam, then permit the mixture to simmer undisturbed for an additional five minutes, ensuring that the sweet potato noodles attain the perfect level of tenderness. You can cook them for a longer period to achieve a slightly softer texture, if desired. Carefully stir in the cooked sweet potato noodles, ensuring they’re thoroughly coated with the savory sauce.
Savor immediately with an added sprinkle of chopped walnuts and, for the ultimate sage enthusiast, a pinch more atop.
