Zimbabwe Greens Preparation
The greens used in his homeland aren’t available here, but Reneth Mano finds collard greens an excellent substitute. Finely shred the greens, discarding tough stems. Place in a saucepan with the water. Bring to boil and cook, stirring occasionally, just until greens are crunchy-tender (don’t overcook). Drain greens, reserving liquid. Return greens to medium heat; add tomato and onions. Heat through, stirring frequently. Thin peanut butter with 3/4 cup of the reserved cooking liquid, then add to vegetables. Heat, stirring constantly, until greens have a creamy consistency, adding more reserved liquid if mixture seems too thick. Taste, and add salt if needed. Serves 4.
