Vicki,La (9:26:51 pm) : This comes from Madhur Jaffrey's "World of the East
Vegetarian Cooking",
a book which I highly recommend. Many of the recipes are high fat, but
easy to trim the fat out of.
Haak (collard greens)
1 3/4 # tender collard greens
1/2 c mustard oil (I use much less)
1/4 t gr. asafoetida (hing)
1 1/4 t salt (or to taste)
1-5 whole dried red chilies
1-5 whole fresh green chilies
Trim away the coarse lower stems of the greens. Separate leaves and
wash well. Keep the leaves whole.
Heat the oil in a pot over a med. flame, add the asafoetida, sizzle
for 5 sec. Put in the greens and cover instantly, uncover after 10 sec.,
stir greens, add salt, stir and saute greens a minute. Add red & green
chilies and 3 1/2 c water. Bring to a boil, cover, lower heat and simmer 1hr
or until greens are tender. There should be about 3/4 c liquid left at the
bottom of the pot. If there is more, boil it away. Serve in a warm bowl
with plain rice.
