Five Spice Walnuts
In a bowl, mix together the walnuts, maple syrup, five spice, chili, and sea salt, ensuring all of the walnuts are coated evenly. Spread the coated walnuts onto a paper-lined baking tray and bake for 15 minutes. Remove them from the oven, sprinkle with a little more flaky sea salt, and leave to cool completely.

Once cool, roughly chop the walnuts and store in an airtight jar or container.

Creamy Garlicky Dressing
In a jar, add all the dressing ingredients and shake to combine. Set aside until ready to use.

To Assemble the Salad
In a large serving bowl, add the kale, roughly a tsp of olive oil, and a sprinkle of sea salt. Massage the kale together with your hands until it becomes vibrant green and shiny (roughly 30-60 seconds). Slice the apples into thin slices. Add the apple to the kale and toss to combine. Add 3⁄4 of the dressing to the salad and mix well. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the salad. Top the salad with about 1 cup of the roughly chopped crunchy spiced walnuts. Serve and enjoy!
