Chop the leeks and pak choi (kale) stalks and stir-fry until slightly tender. Add roughly chopped pak choi leaves and keep stirring. When the leaves are ready (depending on your taste) add salt, paprika and soy sauce. Stir-fry for another minute or so and add finely chopped wet garlic. Eggs could be added to the stir-fry either scrambled or Florentine-style. Cooked quinoa or rice is another tasty addition to turn this stir fry into a light meal.
