INSTRUCTIONS
Wash the collard greens thoroughly to remove any dirt or grit. Drain well.
Pick over the greens, discarding any that are old and cutting out any
discolored spots and the fleshy ribs. Place leaves in a pile, roll them
into a thick cylinder and cut them into thin strips crosswise. Fluff the
cut greens into a bowl. Heat the olive oil in a heavy skillet, add the
garlic, and cook until it is slightly browned. Add the greens and cook,
tossing them frequently to make sure they are coated with the olive oil and
garlic. Add the water, season, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Remove and
serve warm.
