Fingerlings are thumb-size long white potatoes. Because they are young, they haven't had time to convert their sugar fully into starch and consequently have a crisp, tender texture and very thin skin.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In medium bowl, toss potatoes and onion with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Spread potato-onion mixture on baking sheet and roast until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. When cool enough to handle, cut potatoes into bite-size pieces.

In large skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add garlic and chile pepper and cook, stirring often, 30 seconds. Add kale, potatoes and onions. Cover and cook until kale is wilted, 2 to 5 minutes.

Add vinegar, oregano, salt and pepper. Toss thoroughly and serve.
