- Do not add any water to your sukuma wiki, or it might turn out watery. There will be some moisture from the washed collard greens, which should allow it to cook without burning.
- If you like your sukuma wiki chewy, let it cook for 3-5 minutes. If you want it more tender, let it cook for 5 - 10 minutes.
- If using kale, it will take a bit longer to cook. You can taste and see how you like it and remove it when done.
