MEXICAN COLLARD GREENS
My Dad told me about some Mexican collards he had at a local restaurant back home so I was challenged to try to recreate the dish. I have to say, they are so very good and he said they were as close to what he had as could be. Served up with a big pone of cornbread to sop up the pot likker from the collards. Honestly, I could have eaten the whole pot.

Steps:
- For the sauce: Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat and saute the turkey, onions and garlic in the olive oil until the turkey has just about cooked through. Then, add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, Italian herbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Cook until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
- For the lasagna: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Mix together the ricotta cheese and heavy cream in a bowl until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Spoon some of the sauce in the bottom of a casserole dish. Then, add a layer of pasta sheets, collard greens, the tomato sauce mixture and ricotta cheese mixture. Repeat two more times and then top with the mozzarella cheese. Bake until the lasagna is heated through and the cheese is melted and browned, about 45 minutes. Serve by garnishing with fresh chopped herbs.
- Start by bringing the bouillon and 16 cups water to a boil. Then, add in the turkey and collard greens. Allow to cook for about 2 hours over medium heat. When the collard greens are tender, add in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, Cajun seasoning, sugar, oil and red pepper flakes and cook for 1 hour more. Serve while still warm.
PAN-FRIED COLLARD GREENS
Steps:
- Add bacon to a large skillet over medium heat. Cook bacon, stirring occasionally, until crispy, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove from the pan and set aside, leaving the fat in the pan.
- Add the onion to the bacon grease and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook, stirring, for another 30 seconds or so, until fragrant. Add the greens, honey, hot sauce and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Cook the greens, stirring occasionally, until greens are nice and tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Taste and add more salt and/or pepper if necessary. Serve hot with bacon on top.

Steps:
- Melt the Spiced Butter in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and chiles and saute until the onion has softened, about 5 minutes. Add the collards and stir in the vinegar, brown sugar, and salt to taste and bring to a simmer. Turn the heat down to low, cover, and simmer until the greens are very tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Serve hot or warm.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Add the garlic, shallots, ginger, coriander, cumin, fenugreek, ajwain, black pepper, cinnamon, and turmeric. Simmer very gently for 30 minutes to infuse the flavors. Keep an eye on this; you don't want the milk solids to brown.
- Skim off all the foam and any floating seeds and let the butter sit for about 10 minutes for the milk solids to settle on the bottom.
- Carefully pour the spiced butter through a sieve lined with a few layers of cheesecloth into a container, leaving the solids behind. Let it cool, then cover and refrigerate. It will keep for months. Yield: 3 cups
RICK'S TACOS WITH GARLICKY MEXICAN GREENS
These tacos are a favorite of chef Rick Bayless, who first tasted them at a market stall in Toluca, Mexico, where they're considered to be good, old-fashioned peasant food.

Steps:
- Warm the tortillas: Place a vegetable steamer in a large saucepan filled with 1/2 inch of water. Bring to a boil. Wrap tortillas in a heavy kitchen towel, lay them in the steamer, and cover with a tight lid. Boil 1 minute, turn off the heat, and let stand without opening for about 15 minutes.
- Prepare the filling: While tortillas are steaming, bring 3 quarts salted water to a boil in a large pot. Add greens, and cook until barely tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain in a colander, and spread out on a large plate or baking sheet to cool. When cool enough to handle, roughly chop.
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, stir for 1 minute, then add greens, and stir for about 1 minute, just long enough to heat them through. Season with salt.
- Prepare the tacos: Scoop the filling into a deep, warm serving dish, and sprinkle with cheese. Serve with the warm tortillas, salsa, and cilantro sprigs.
SAUTEED GREENS: QUELITES

Add tomatoes, and cook for 2 more minutes. Add the mustard greens. Cook for 5 minutes until greens are wilted and tender. Add the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Serve.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Cut the sausage into 2-inch pieces, add them to the pan, and brown over medium heat, covered, for about 5 minutes. Add the onions and carrots to the saucepan, and cook the mixture, covered, for 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut the collard greens into 2-inch pieces, and wash them in a bowl of cold water. Lift the greens from the water, and add them, still wet, to the saucepan. Cook the mixture over medium to high heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until greens are wilted. Reduce the heat to low, and add the soy sauce and salt. Cover tightly, and cook over very low heat for about 45 minutes, until the greens are tender and most of the liquid is gone.
- Divide sausage and greens among six plates; serve immediately.
