Collard greens can be quite tough and difficult to digest, so when making a salad with fresh leaves, crush them thoroughly and massage them with salt to soften the greens. Toss with canned beans in a vinaigrette and serve as a side dish with juicy, spicy oven-baked pork tenderloin.



The recipes use measuring containers with the following volumes:
1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.
1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.
1/5 teaspoon (tsp) - 1 ml.

Ingredients for the recipe:


  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 small pork tenderloins (about 350 g each)
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 bunch kale (about 450 g), stems removed, leaves thinly sliced
  • 1 can (425g) black-eyed beans, rinsed
  • 1/2 cup canned Peppadew peppers, drained and coarsely chopped
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1/3 cup crumbled cornbread

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a baking sheet with foil. In a small bowl, combine chili powder, thyme, cayenne pepper, and 3/4 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper.
  2. Rub the pork with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the spice mixture. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and roast, turning once, until a thermometer inserted into the center of the tenderloin registers 145°F (63°C), about 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.

  3. Meanwhile, toss the kale in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Massage the greens with your hands until slightly wilted, about 1 minute. Add the beans, peppers, green onions, vinegar, and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper to taste and toss. Set aside.
  4. Toast the crumbled cornbread in a small, dry nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 3-5 minutes. Slice the pork and serve with the salad. Top the salad with the crunchy topping.
