Ingredients

  • 2 pounds young collards, thick stems removed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 9 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt

Method

  • Wash leaves and drain, but dont dry.
  • Stack a few leaves, with a large one on the bottom, and roll them up in a tight cylinder, so the stem runs along the length of the roll.
  • Hold it tightly, and shave it crosswise into very thin ribbons.
  • Cut all the greens this way.
  • In a large skillet or Dutch oven over high heat, heat the oil until shimmering, add garlic and stir.
  • When the garlic is golden, add the collards, and cook, tossing thoroughly with tongs, until theyre all dark green, tender with a little bit of crunch.
  • Add salt to taste.
