Coconut Creamed Greens Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the corn, scallions, red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the coconut milk and 1/2 cup water and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro and vinegar. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with cilantro.

Steps:

• Cut off and discard any dry or wilted bits from the collard greens and wash the remaining collards in cold water. Transfer to a colander to drain, then coarsely chop the stems and leaves into 2- to 3-inch pieces.
• In a large wok or skillet, heat butter and oil over medium-high until rippling. Add scallions and cook, stirring, until softened, about 1 minute. Add collards and cook, stirring, just until wilted, about 1 minute.
• Add coconut milk and soy sauce and bring to a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, stirring frequently, until collards are cooked to your taste, about 7 minutes for bright and crisp greens or 10 minutes for darker, softer greens.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring often, until the shallots are translucent and the garlic is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add the collards, coconut milk and 5-spice powder, season with salt and cook over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is reduced and creamy, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and serve.
