Steps:
- For the lemon yogurt sauce: Add the yogurt, lemon juice, dill, coriander and some salt and pepper to a bowl. Mix together, then drizzle some olive oil on top and garnish with a sprig of dill.
- For the collards: Bring a large pot of water to a boil and have a bowl of ice water ready. Boil the collard leaves until bright green and pliable, about 1 1/3 minutes. Transfer to the ice water to cool. Gently squeeze the leaves dry.
- Lay out the leaves one at a time on a paper towel to blot, and use a sharp knife to cut out the thick center stems, cutting about three-quarters of the way to the top and making sure to leave 2 to 3 inches uncut at the top. Set the trimmed leaves aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Add the rice, raisins and allspice and cook, stirring, until the rice is well coated, about 1 minute. Add 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and remove from the heat. Stir in the dill, parsley, mint and lemon zest.
- Lay out one collard leaf with the intact end pointing towards you and the trimmed stem end pointing away. Spoon 2 level tablespoons of the rice filling in the center of the side facing you. Fold the sides of the leaf over the filling, then roll the leaf up tightly away from you like a burrito, starting from the bottom and finishing seam-side down. Repeat with the remaining leaves and rice filling. (Some of the larger leaves may need to be trimmed slightly if they appear too bulky when rolled up.)
- Add a splash of the remaining 3 tablespoons oil to a medium saucepan. Arrange the collard rolls in a single layer on the bottom of the pan. Top with enough water to just cover the rolls, then drizzle in the remaining olive oil and the lemon juice. Cover the rolls directly with a round of parchment paper. Bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a low simmer and cook, covered with a lid, for 1 hour. Remove the rolls from the liquid, drain on a paper towel-lined plate and let cool to room temperature. Serve with lemon wedges and the lemon yogurt sauce.
COLLARD GREENS STUFFED WITH RAISINS, NUTS AND RICE
If greens, raisins, nuts and grains of rice all symbolize prosperity, then you'll do well to make this recipe for your New Year's Eve party. Collard greens are great stuffing leaves; they are large and easy to work with, and they can stand up to long simmering. The filling is a typical Greek dolmades filling.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil while you carefully stem the collard greens, trying to keep the leaves intact. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the collard leaves in batches. Blanch two minutes and transfer to the ice water. Drain, gently squeeze out excess water and set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat in a large lidded skillet, and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, salt and sugar, and cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, about a minute. Add the rice and pine nuts, and stir together until the rice is coated with oil. Stir in the tomatoes, currants, cinnamon, allspice and salt and pepper to taste. Stir together, and add 1 cup water or enough to barely cover the rice. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer until all of the liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat. Allow to sit for 10 minutes without disturbing. Stir in the mint and dill.
- Oil a wide, deep, lidded sauté pan or saucepan with olive oil. To fill the leaves, place one on your work surface, vein side up and with the stem end facing you. The leaf may have a big space in the middle where you stemmed it; if so, pull the two sides of the leaf in towards each other and overlap them slightly. Place about 1 level tablespoon of filling on the bottom center of each leaf. Fold the sides over, then roll up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Place seam side down in the pan, fitting the stuffed leaves in snug layers. Drizzle on the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and pour on the lemon juice. Barely cover with water, and top with a layer of lemon slices.
- Cover the stuffed leaves with a round of parchment paper, and place a plate over the paper to weight them during cooking. This will keep them from opening. Bring to a simmer, cover and simmer over low heat for 45 minutes to an hour until the leaves are tender. Remove from the heat, and carefully remove the dolmades from the water with a slotted spoon or tongs. Allow to drain on a rack set over a sheet pan. Serve warm or cold.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- To start the sauce: Sauté the onion and garlic in the oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan set over medium-high heat, until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato sauce, brown sugar, apple-cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, and let simmer for 15 minutes, so all the flavors can build.
- Set a large pot of water to boil. Lay each collard leaf out on your work surface, and remove the tough large stem and center vein. Don't cut the whole leaf in half; just cut the toughest part of the stem out in a V-shape. Once the water is boiling, slip the collard leaves in and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain into a colander, and rinse with cold water to help stop the cooking.
- While the sauce is simmering, begin the dirty rice filling: Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed sauté pan set over medium-high heat. Brown the sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Once the sausage is browned, add the onion, green bell pepper, celery, and garlic, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes more. Stir in the chicken broth, cayenne, cooked rice, and parsley, mixing thoroughly and letting the broth reduce until there is no moisture left in the pan. Taste, and season with salt and pepper.
- Lay out each cooked collard leaf and put 1/4 cup of the dirty rice in the center. Fold both the sides into the center, and the top and bottom over the center. Roll up into a cylinder-tightly, like a cigar or a small burrito-and repeat with the remaining leaves. If there happen to be any remaining leaves, you can chop them up and add to the sauce.
- Pour a 1/2-inch layer of the sauce into a 13- by-9-inch casserole dish. Arrange the collard rolls, seam sides down, on top of the sauce. Pour the remaining sauce over the stuff ed collards, and cover the pan with foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, and serve.
SICILIAN COLLARD GREENS WITH PINE NUTS AND RAISINS
From The Kind Diet by Alicia Silverstone To make this dish macrobiotic-friendly, substitute the pine nuts with pumpkin seeds and the balsamic vinegar with shoyu (soy sauce). Note: The stems of the collard greens are full of minerals, so if you want to use them, chop them into 1-inch pieces and cook for a couple of minutes before adding the collard greens.

Steps:
- Use a sharp knife to cut out the central rib and stem from each collard leaf. Rinse the leaves in a sink of cool water, lifting them into a colander to drain a bit (you want some water to remain on the leaves).
- Toast the pine nuts over medium heat in a dry skillet for about 5 minutes or until golden.
- Shake the pan often to keep the pine nuts from burning. Transfer to a plate, and set aside.
- Place the garlic and oil in a large skillet, and saute over medium heat for 1 minute or until the garlic is fragrant.
- Add the damp collards and stir, then cover the pan and cook for 2 minutes longer.
- Add the raisins and pine nuts, and stir. Cover and cook for 2 minutes.
- Stir in the balsamic vinegar, cover, and continue to cook for 1 to 2 minutes longer.

STUFFED COLLARD GREENS
Collard greens are great leaves to stuff. They remind me a bit of grape leaves, though they don't need to be brined before you stuff them. Just remove the stems, blanch them, fill and cook like cabbage leaves. I used medium-grain Cal-Rose rice that I bought at my local Iranian market for these; this type of rice is perfect for stuffing grape leaves and vegetables, the package told me, because it doesn't swell when cooking and won't break the leaf.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil while you carefully stem the collard greens, trying to keep the leaves intact. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the collard leaves, in batches. Blanch for 2 minutes and transfer to the ice water. Drain, gently squeeze out excess water and set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium-low heat in a large nonstick skillet and add the onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the onion is tender but not browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the pine nuts and garlic, stir together and add the drained rinsed rice. Stir for a minute or two, until you hear the rice begin to crackle, then remove from the heat. Toss with the herbs, salt and pepper, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. To gauge how much salt you will need, use the amount that you would use when cooking 1 1/4 cups of rice.
- Oil a wide, deep lidded sauté pan or saucepan with olive oil. To fill the leaves, place one on your work surface, vein side up and with the stem end facing you. The leaf may have a big space in the middle where you stemmed it; if it does, pull the two sides of the leaf in toward each other and overlap them slightly. Place about 1 level tablespoon of filling on the bottom center of each leaf. Fold the sides over, then roll up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Place in the pan, seam side down, fitting the stuffed leaves in snug layers.
- Whisk together the lemon juice, remaining oil, and tomato paste with 2 tablespoons water. Season to taste with salt. Pour over the rolls. Add enough water to barely cover the rolls and top with a layer of lemon slices if desired. They will add some bitterness to the dish because of the bitter oils in the lemon skin. Invert a plate over the rolls to keep them wrapped and in position, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover the pan, turn the heat to low and simmer for 1 hour, at which point the leaves will be tender and the rice cooked. Remove from the heat and carefully remove the stuffed leaves from the water to a platter or to plates with a slotted spoon or tongs. Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes. Taste the liquid left in the pot and adjust seasonings. Serve the rolls warm or at room temperature with the liquid from the pot as a sauce.

COLLARD GREEN RICE
It doesn't get more Gullah-Geechie than this dish! You know I've got to have a bowl of rice on the table and the addition of tender greens makes this rice pilaf even better. I like to serve it in my West African Stew or on the side of my Grilled Stuffed Whole Snapper.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the rice and cook, toasting until the rice begins to smell nutty, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock and some House Seasoning. Bring it to a boil; cover, reduce the heat to low and cook until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the liquid, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the butter and remaining tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, pepper, garlic and a generous pinch of House Seasoning. Cook until just tender and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the collards and cook until softened, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Once the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed, turn off the heat. Remove the lid and add the onions and collard green mixture. Fluff and stir gently with a fork to combine.
- Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to boil. Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl and set nearby.
- While the water comes to a boil, prepare the collard greens. Working 1 leaf at a time, cut out the stem, stopping halfway up the leaf so that the whole leaf stays intact.
- Blanch the greens in the boiling water for 2 minutes, then plunge the leaves in the ice bath to stop the cooking. Drain and lightly squeeze out any excess water. Pat the leaves dry with paper towels.
- In a large high-walled skillet, whisk together the chicken broth and Gourmet Garden™ Jalapeño Stir-in Paste. Add the rice, cover, and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-14 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Fluff the rice with a fork, then transfer to a medium bowl. Wipe out the pan.
- Add bacon strips to the same pan over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes, until browned. Flip and cook on the other side for 3 minutes more, until brown and crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan, leaving any rendered fat behind, and drain on paper towels. Once cool enough to handle, chop the bacon.
- Add the onion, paprika, and garlic powder, and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes, until softened and golden brown. Add the rice, chopped bacon, chicken, salt, and apple cider vinegar. Stir well, then cook for 5 minutes, until heated through. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Lay a collard green on a cutting board, overlapping the two sides in the center to remove the gap where the stem was. Scoop a heaping ¼ cup of the rice mixture just above the bottom of the leaf. Fold the bottom over the filling, fold in the sides, then roll up tightly, tucking in the sides of the leaf as you go. Repeat with the remaining filling and collard greens.
- Enjoy!
