Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 100 g kale about 4 to 5 large leaves, washed
  • ½ bunch celery about 225 g, washed
  • 1 cucumber washed, cut into long wedges
  • 1 green apple such as Granny Smith, cored and pips removed, cut into wedges
  • 10 g fresh ginger about 2 cm, scrubbed and thinly sliced
  • ½ lemon peeled, pips removed

Equipment

  • Sana 727 or Sana 707 slow juicer, fine screen fitted
  • Chopping board and knife

Method
 

  1. Strip the kale leaves from their thick central ribs. Cut the ribs into 3 to 4 cm lengths and roll the leaves into two or three tight bundles.
  2. Cut the celery into 3 to 4 cm lengths.
  3. Fit the fine screen. On the Sana 727, set the speed to 40 rpm.
  4. Feed a bundle of kale, then a piece of apple or cucumber to push it through. Repeat, adding the celery, kale ribs, ginger and lemon between the harder pieces.
  5. Finish with cucumber to carry the last of the juice out of the drum.
  6. Stir and drink straight away.

Notes

Makes about 600 ml. Too strong? Add more cucumber next time rather than more apple.
