Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash the Collard Greens

    Thoroughly rinse the collard greens under cold running water to remove any dirt or grit. Shake off excess water and set aside.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Remove the tough stems from the collard greens and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Aromatics

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

  2. 4

    Add Collard Greens

    Stir in the chopped collard greens and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the greens begin to wilt.

  3. 5

    Pour in the Broth

    Add the vegetable broth to the pot and bring to a simmer. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.

  4. 6

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the collard greens simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender.

  5. 7

    Finish with Vinegar

    Remove the pot from heat and stir in the apple cider vinegar. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
