Zimbabwe Greens - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 bunch collard greens, washed
    1 cup water
    1 large tomatoes, cored, chopped
    5 green onions, sliced (green and white part)
    3 tablespoons smooth peanut butter (natural is best)
    salt
Preparation
    Finely shred the greens, discarding tough stems.
    Place in a saucepan with the water.
    Bring to boil and cook, stirring occasionally, just until greens are crunchy-tender (don't overcook).
    Drain greens, reserving liquid.
    Return greens to medium heat; add tomato and onions.
    Heat through, stirring frequently.
    Thin peanut butter with 3/4 cup of the reserved cooking liquid, then add to vegetables.
    Heat, stirring constantly, until greens have a creamy consistency, adding more reserved liquid if mixture seems too thick.
    Taste; add salt if needed.
    Serves 4.
