I actually cook mine for a short time and they are delicious. I chop an onion
and an apple and saute them until the onion is soft. I de-rib the collard
greens and then roll them into a tube and cut them into a half inch
chiffonade. Throw them in the pan with the apple and onion (if I am making a
lot I use my wok, it's easier to move things around) and mix and heat until
the greens turn bright green. Hit it with a few dashes of rice vinegar and
sesame oil and we're good to go.

Wonderful, not overcooked, good flavor. Even my dad, the guy who grew up on
greens cooked to death in bacon fat likes them.
