Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Collard Greens

    Rinse the collard greens thoroughly under cold water. Remove the tough stems and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add Collard Greens

    Add the chopped collard greens to the pot. Stir well to coat the greens with the oil and onions.

  4. 4

    Add Liquid and Seasoning

    Pour in the vegetable broth and apple cider vinegar. Sprinkle in the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

  5. 5

    Braised Cooking

    Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Let the collard greens simmer for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the greens are tender.

  6. 6

    Final Touches

    Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve the braised collard greens warm.
