Baked Curly Kale with Potatoes, Olives, and Garlic

This savory rustic mix is baked rather than simmered to better retain the distinct textures. Small yellow-fleshed potatoes are my favorite, but they are hard to find. If you use larger ones, you may prefer to peel them. Vegetable devotees may want no more than grilled tomatoes to fill out the meal; others might serve an assertive grilled fish (such as mackerel or sardines), roast lamb, or sausage of any nationality.
