Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp cooking oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 jalapeno pepper , seeds and ribs removed, sliced thin
3/4 lb kale , tough stems removed, leaves washed well and shredded (about 1 quart)
1 1/2 lb sweet potatoes (about 3), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1 1/2 quarts canned low-sodium chicken broth or homemade stock
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 cup canned unsweetened coconut milk
1 cup long- grain rice

Directions:

In a large saucepan, heat the oil over moderately low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and jalapeño and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Stir in the kale, sweet potatoes, broth, and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Add the coconut milk and just heat through.
Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Stir in the rice and boil until just done, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain. Put a mound of rice in the center of each bowl. Ladle the soup around the rice.
Wine Recommendation: Foods with a bit of sweetness invite some in the wine as well. Good choices would include an off-dry chenin blanc from California or a similarly off-dry riesling from Washington State.
Notes: Crinkly kale leaves are wonderfully sturdy and flavorful, making them especially well-suited to soups. Remove and discard the thick stems and then wash the leaves really well before adding them to a dish. The twists and turns of kale leaves are great places for dirt to hide.
