Ingredients
Preparation
Trim stems from collard greens and discard. In batches, stack leaves and, starting at side, roll up into tube. Cut crosswise into shreds. Set aside.
In large shallow Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat; sauté garlic, salt and hot pepper flakes until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add collards; sauté until wilted, about 3 minutes.
Add 1/2 cup (125 mL) water; cover and steam over medium heat, stirring occasionally and adding more water if liquid evaporates, until collards are tender, about 25 minutes.

Tip:
When rolling the collards together and cutting into thin strips or shreds, you are cutting into a chiffonade. Literally translated, this French phrase means "made of rags."
