The ingredients for Brazilian Chove (Collards, to Americans) are:

Collards, ?5 cups (I never measure, I just use a 6 qt mixing bowl and fill it up), cut up chiffonade style (sliced real thin)
1 c chopped onion
1/2 tsp garlic
2 Tbs light olive oil

Here is how you make Brazilian Chove (Collards, to Americans):

After collards have been washed real well, shake off water and lay one leaf down on cutting board. Take a sharp knife and cut out the rib or main stem. Do this for each leaf, stacking them up on top of each other. When you get a stack about an inch high, roll the stack up and slice it very thin (called chiffonade). Do this until all the collards are cut up and set aside in a separate bowl. Use a large pot to saute the onion until translucent and then add garlic and saute for a few more minutes. Add collards to this pot and continue to saute' til cooked to your taste. I usually turn the heat down and cover the pot and steam them for a few minutes as I like my collards more tender than crisp. Add salt and pepper to taste.Makes 7 1/2 c servingsNumber of Servings: 7Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user AMOBRASIL83.
