Equipment

Ingredients

  • ½ cup vegetable stock
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine
  • 1 tablespoon tamari gluten-free soy sauce or light soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper or Aleppo pepper flakes

  • ¼ cup of collard greens chiffonade see recipe

Instructions

  • Combine stock, tamari, rice wine, sugar and salt to taste in a small bowl. Stir until sugar and salt dissolve. Combine garlic, ginger, and pepper flakes in another bowl.

  • Add the collard greens then stir-fry another 30 seconds to a minute, until well combined, and serve.

Notes

If you don't just happen to have leftover collards and sweet potatoes sitting around, don't fret. Both are easy to make. Just cut up a batch of collards chiffonade style and toss in olive oil and vinegar or lime juice. Sweet potatoes should just be roasted simply.
Limit the seasoning of the greens and sweet potatoes so they pair up well with the garlic, ginger, soy, etc. 
Shrimp is a good add for this dish if you're not sticking vegan.
Soba noodles are gluten-free, so if you want to keep this dish fully gluten-free then use Tamari which is a gluten-free soy sauce.
Soba noodles can be expensive due to buckwheat content. The more buckwheat the more expensive. If you're looking for a substitute, go with a whole wheat spaghetti pasta
