Sauteed Collard Greens And Black-Eyed Peas With Dijon Mustard - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb collard greens (substitute turnip, mustard, or beet greens)
    1 1/2 tablespoons butter
    1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
    1/4 cup sour cream
    1 tablespoon dijon-style mustard or 1 tablespoon horseradish
    1 pinch ground cayenne pepper (or to taste)
    salt and pepper
    1 (14 ounce) can black-eyed peas
Preparation
    Remove coarse stems from greens and discard. Wash and spin dry, then cross cut into 1\" square pieces.
    Drop greens into a pot of boiling, lightly salted water. Cook uncovered 5-10 minutes, or until just tender. Timing will depend on the age and size of the greens. Very young greens will need only 1 or 2 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
    Meanwhile, in a large non-aluminum skillet, melt butter and oil over medium heat. Add onion, stirring frequently, 5 minutes or until softened and slightly browned. Add black-eyed peas and drained greens. Toss to coat.
    In a small bowl, combine sour cream, mustard (or horseradish if using), and cayenne pepper with a whisk or fork. Add to peas and greens and cook, stirring frequently, 3-5 minutes or until liquid has almost evaporated. Season with salt and pepper and serve warm. Have a little more sour cream/mustard (or horseradish) to serve on the side.
