Ingredients

2 pounds collard greens, trimmed of tough stalks, cut into thin strips and thoroughly washed
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/3 cup brown sugar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Put all ingredients in large stockpot with just enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, and reduce heat to low.
Simmer until greens are tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Serve greens with a slotted spoon, topping with a little of the pot liquor (the broth from the pot). The pot liquor may be used for dipping cornbread, or as a flavorful and highly nutritious soup.
