Hey y'all, I'm back and I'm here in the kitchen
0:06
Moyo means from the heart, y'all.
0:08
Kofi is here sharing some of his recipes with us
0:12
you've got me some little chores to do over here.
0:15
- Yeah, I got things for you.
0:16
- And y'all, I'm fixing to grind up
0:19
about a half a teaspoon of fennel.
0:22
And this is going to go in Kofi's spicy collard greens.
0:26
Look at that, just grinding up those fennel seeds.
0:31
- These are big cloves.
0:33
Next, Kofi needs me to mince up five cloves of garlic.
0:38
- [Kofi] Garlic is good for the heart.
0:39
- [Paula] Yes, it is good.
0:40
- Leave that right there
0:44
And I'm going to get started on these onions.
0:51
- [Paula] I got your pan.
0:54
So Kofi, tell everybody what the idea is
0:57
behind Real Men Cook.
0:59
- Yvette Moyo, my partner and I are both activist people.
1:03
We've been involved in community stuff
1:05
that we needed to come up with a concept of something
1:08
we could give back to our company's activities.
1:11
And so Real Men Cook became that vehicle.
1:15
- Well, I think that's a fabulous idea.
1:18
All right, what kind of seasoning do we use?
1:21
- Well, we're going to use some olive oil.
1:23
- We need about a quarter of a cup there.
1:24
We don't want to get too-
1:26
- Okay, that looks like about quarter of a cup.
1:27
- That looks about good.
1:28
- All right now, if you'll put in the onions, then.
1:31
- Sweat those down a little bit.
1:33
- And you've got a jalapeno.
1:35
- [Kofi] I'm using a jalapeno.
1:38
The seeds is where the heat is.
1:40
We can throw our garlic in now as well.
1:43
- Okay, so in it goes.
1:45
This is smelling good.
1:47
- Okay, just a second.
1:48
- Have you had a chance to eat at The Lady & Sons
1:50
while you've been in town?
1:53
- So you ate our collard greens?
1:56
- You'd think those are sissy collards, wouldn't you?
2:01
Okay now this is a quick collard dish.
2:04
We're using collard greens that are frozen.
2:08
I love the smell of onions and garlic cooking.
2:11
- I always tell some of my guys that are new to cooking
2:14
and what have you, if they're dating or that kind of thing,
2:17
that cooking at home is the cheat date stuff.
2:20
Even if you don't know how to cook,
2:22
you can fake it by just saute an onion.
2:28
- You're exactly right.
2:30
So the onion and garlic looks ready to me, Kofi.
2:34
- So pass me those collards.
2:37
- I'll just dump these in.
2:38
All right, now tell everybody how many collards we're using.
2:42
Two pounds of collards.
2:44
- I sure do like the idea of using this frozen collard.
2:49
- [Kofi] We're going to go with our jalapenos
2:51
at this point in time too.
2:53
- Again, the idea here is quick.
2:55
- Oh, my husband would love this.
2:56
(upbeat guitar instrumental)
2:58
You can't get things hot enough for him.
3:03
How about salt and pepper?
3:05
- You just gonna use the seasoning salt?
3:08
- Just the seasoning salt, that's all.
3:09
- All right, I'm gonna.
3:13
- Okay, now let's not forget our fennel.
3:19
- All right, let's see.
3:21
And we're gonna use a half a teaspoon.
3:25
Oh my gosh, that's hot, Kofi!
3:28
- That's good for you.
3:29
You said you wanted to sweat.
3:32
- No, I said my husband.
3:36
Fat girls don't like to sweat.
3:41
- [Kofi] Let's put a little of that balsamic in there.
3:43
- Okay, how much of that?
3:45
- We're just going to sprinkle.
3:46
Sprinkle, sprinkle, sprinkle, that's all.
3:48
We're not trying to change the flavor.
3:50
It's just adding a little bite to it.
3:52
- Okay, so about a half a teaspoon, y'all.
3:55
- Okay, right at the end of our collard preparation,
3:59
of course, we're going to drop some nice fresh tomato in
4:04
right at the end of that.
4:05
- So how long would you say
4:06
we're gonna cook those collards all total?
4:09
- This is a 15 minute deal from the freezer to the plate.
4:13
15 minutes. - I like that.
4:15
And this is gonna be delicious along with the catfish
4:19
and the carrot souffle.
4:23
- Lookin' pretty good!
4:29
- Okay, let's get the tent back on it.
4:32
- Everything I put my fingers on is hot as blue blazers!
4:37
Y'all come back to see if Paula's on fire or not.
4:41
- Yvette, you're gonna bring us a plate over here.
4:43
Ooh, these smell wonderful.
4:48
Y'all don't mind standing up eating, do you?
4:52
- [Yvette] And collard greens!
4:55
- Is it spicy enough for you? - Flavor is good, isn't it?
4:56
- It's not too spicy for me!
