Thanksgiving Menu Highlights: Curry Collard Greens


Initially I had to call my Grandmother to get instruction on how to prepare the greens. But unlike Grandma's recipe, I wasn't going to make the greens in the traditional way sauteed with meat. This rendition was a hit at dinner and I am sure my Grandmother would enjoy.


This recipe makes 8 servings:
large bushel of collard greens chopped
1/2 cup chopped white onion
1/4 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup chopped scallions
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp curry powder
1/4 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp chili paste

Total Prep/Cook Time:
30 minutes

In large skillet saute:
Olive Oil (1 tbsp)/ Scallions/ White Onions

After 3 minutes, begin to add collard greens to the skillet. Mix with onions.

Once all collards have been added and start to get soft, add the last 1 tbsp of Olive oil and:
Coconut Milk/ Sea Salt/ Curry Powder/ Sugar/ Chili Paste

Mix well and continue to cook over medium heat until collard greens are dark green and the desired tenderness.

Remove from heat and serve.

Enjoy!
