Collard Greens

Adapted from Michael W. Twitty’s “Cash Collards.” These can be quite spicy, so adjust the cayenne to your preference.

SERVINGS: 6

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 tablespoons oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 fresh cayenne pepper, chopped (or up to 1 teaspoon dried cayenne)
  • 5 cups collard greens, kale, or turnip greens, stems removed and sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup vegetable stock
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (oregano, marjoram, or parsley)

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add garlic and onion with salt and pepper; sauté until translucent. Add cayenne. Add greens one cup at a time, allowing each batch to wilt before adding more. Add vegetable stock and simmer uncovered for 10–15 minutes. Finish with fresh herbs.
