Method

Preparation Steps

Prepare the greens

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

Sauté the aromatics

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Cook the collard greens

Add the chopped collard greens to the pot and stir well. Pour in the vegetable broth, and add red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer.

Simmer

Cover the pot and let the collard greens simmer for about 30-40 minutes, or until they are tender. Stir occasionally and adjust seasoning as needed.

Serve

Once the collard greens are tender and flavorful, remove from heat and serve warm as a side dish.
