Personal Notes:
Unless the collards are very fresh and tender they will probably need a little water added before you cover the pan (about ut 1/2 cup us usually enough). after 5 minutes cooking, you can add another 1/2 cup water if they still do not look tender enough. After you turn off the heat, let them sit covered for another 5-10 minutes to soften them a bit more.
