BRAZILIAN COLLARD GREENS
Brazilian collard greens are nothing like the slow cooked Southern version. Bright, garlicky and crisp-tender, these collards are one of my favorite sides ever! And the best part? You'll only need four ingredients and 15 minutes (or less) to make them!

Steps:
- Rinse the collard greens under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Remove the center stem of each leaf and stack the leaves together, one on top of the other.
- Fold the leaves in half, then roll them tightly, into a cigar-shaped cylinder. Use a sharp chef's knife to cut very thin ribbons. Reserve.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet, over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the collard greens and sauté, tossing with the garlicky oil. Cover and cook until they are wilted and crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
- Serve immediately.

Steps:
- To prepare the collards: Cut out the thick center rib out of each collard green. Stack the rib-less greens and roll them up into a cigar-like shape. Slice over the "cigar" as thinly as possible (⅛″ to ¼″) to make long strands. Shake up the greens and give them a few chops so the strands aren't so long.
- Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, then add the olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add all of the collard greens and the salt.
- Stir until all of the greens are lightly coated in oil, then let them cook for about 30 seconds before stirring again. Continue stirring in 30-second intervals until the greens are wilted, dark green, and some are starting to turn browns on the edges (this is delicious). This will take between 3 to 6 minutes.
- Once the collards are just about done, add the garlic and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir to break up the garlic and cook until it's fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Immediately divide the cooked collards onto plates, and serve with a lemon wedge each.

Steps:
- Trim stems of collard greens, keeping leaves whole. If necessary, trim the large vein of the stem (in center of leaf) so that it is flat with the leaf. Rinse leaves under cold water and then stack, still wet, starting with larger leaves on the bottom. Tightly roll stacks of leaves lengthwise, like a cigar. Slice crosswise as thinly as possible.
- Heat oil and garlic together in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring until garlic is golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Add collard greens, folding with tongs so garlic gets tossed in with greens, until they start to wilt, about 1 minute. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and continue folding until greens have all wilted and begin releasing their moisture, 2-3 minutes.
- Transfer collards to a serving bowl. Season with salt to taste and serve.

- Make the sauce: Stir together lemon juice, onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl and set aside.
- Cut out the thick stem from the center of each collard leaf with a knife, or hold the bottom of the stem with one hand, then loosely wrap the other hand around the leaf and rip upward to pull the stem and leaf apart. Arrange 5 to 6 leaves in a stack on a cutting board, then roll them tightly lengthwise. Slice crosswise into thin ribbons, and repeat with remaining leaves.
- Heat oil in a large skillet, Dutch oven, or wok over medium-high. Add garlic and chile (if using), and cook, stirring often, until golden brown, being careful not to burn the garlic, 1to 2 minutes. Add collards and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon or tongs to coat well with garlicky oil. Add water and continue to cook until collards are uniformly dark green but still have a bit of crunch, 7 to 10 minutes.
