Ingredients:
1 1⁄2 pounds collard greens
1⁄4 cup olive oil
2 medium onions, peeled and sliced into half rings
1 (1 inch) piece of ginger, peeled and grated
1 1⁄4 teaspoons salt, to taste
water as needed
Directions:
Remove the coarse stalks and central rib from all of the collard leaves and cut them cross-wise into very fine ribbons.
Put the oil in a large, wide pot and set over medium heat. When hot, add the onions and 1⁄2 tsp salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are a medium brown color, about 10-15 minutes.
Add the ginger. Stir and cook 1 minute.
Add the greens and 1⁄2 tsp salt, mixing well to thoroughly coat the greens with the hot oil. Add a little water to keep it from sticking.
Cover, turn the heat down to medium-low and cook for 5 – 10 minutes, or until the greens are very tender. Taste and adjust seasoning with remaining salt, if necessary.
