Kale and Tuna Laing Recipe

Kale and Tuna Laing is a version of the famous laing (taro leaves cooked in coconut milk). This recipe is unique because I used kale leaves as an alternative for taro leaves. This is best for people who are abroad and don't have quick access to dried taro leaves (dahon ng gabi).
