From above, see wisps of smoke fade from the still warm soft tortillas on a rustic slate platter. Inside these open-ended torpedos are layers of glossy, charred, dark-green kale leaves, peeking out alongside vibrant julienned red bell peppers and specks of crushed peanuts. A drizzle of piquant Thai BBQ sauce graces the top, flecked with chilli and coriander.

A final fox tip

This beautiful Instagram-worthy dish does not only taste incredible, but it is also adjustable. Don't like kale? Try it with other greens like Swiss chard or spinach. For non-vegan version, some grilled chicken or shrimp will be an excellent addition. And kids will love the fun of rolling their own wraps!
