Cheese: saute the garlic in the spiced butter for a few minutes. Add the
cardamon, salt and pepper. Remove from the burner and allow to cool.
Stir this mixture into the cheese.

Greens: cook the collard greens covered in a 4 quart saucepan along with
about 1/2 cup water. Add the cayenne, black pepper, garlic, spiced
butter and chopped onion. Cook covered until the greens collapse. All
the greens to cool a bit and salt to taste.

To serve: Drain the greens a bit and place on a platter or on Injera
bread (recipe included in this set). Spoon the cheese over the greens and
serve. Alternate: mix the greens and cheese together before placing on
the platter or bread. Either way is delicious.
