They use different greens in Africa but collard greens come the closest. Adapted from Recipes from countries around the world.
Ingredients:
1 bunch collard greens, washed
1 cup water
1 large tomato, cored, chopped
5 green onions, sliced (green and white part)
3 tablespoons smooth peanut butter (natural is best)
salt
Directions:
1. Finely shred the greens, discarding tough stems.
2. Place in a saucepan with the water.
3. Bring to boil and cook, stirring occasionally, just until greens are crunchy-tender (don't overcook).
4. Drain greens, reserving liquid.
5. Return greens to medium heat; add tomato and onions.
6. Heat through, stirring frequently.
7. Thin peanut butter with 3/4 cup of the reserved cooking liquid, then add to vegetables.
8. Heat, stirring constantly, until greens have a creamy consistency, adding more reserved liquid if mixture seems too thick.
9. Taste; add salt if needed.
