Step 1

Warm the oil in a large pot. When shimmering, add the onion, garlic, ginger, and chilis with a pinch of salt, and cook on medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the paprika, coriander, and pepper, and stir. Cook for about 60 seconds until fragrant.

Step 2

Add the cubed sweet potato, tomatoes and tomato paste, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the tomatoes are starting to break down and release their juices.

Step 3

Add the broth and peanut butter, stir well, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and add the bay leaves, rosemary and thyme sprigs, and collard greens. Partially cover and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the collards are tender and the sweet potato is soft. Stir in half of the vinegar.

Step 4

Remove the bay leaves and fresh herb sprigs. Season to taste with salt (this dish generally needs a lot) and pepper, and add the rest of the vinegar if more acidity is needed. Serve with chopped fresh cilantro or parsley, and accompanying starch of choice such as potatoes or rice.
