Trin for trin

1
Wash the collard greens thoroughly, remove the tough stems, and chop them into bite-sized pieces.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: Ensure all dirt is removed from the greens, as they can be quite sandy.
2
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Ca. 1 min.
3
Add the yellow onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Ca. 7 min.
Kokkens note: Do not rush this step; properly sautéed onions build the flavor base.
4
Stir in the fresh ginger, garlic, and serrano pepper (if using) and cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Be careful not to burn the garlic.
5
Add the chopped collard greens to the pot in batches, allowing each batch to wilt slightly before adding more.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: The greens will reduce significantly in volume as they cook.
6
Pour in the vegetable broth, then season with salt and black pepper.
Ca. 1 min.
7
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and cook for 30-35 minutes, or until the collard greens are very tender.
Ca. 35 min.
Kokkens note: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
8
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed before serving.
Ca. 1 min.
