3 tbsp of flour

3/4 cup of milk

1/4 cup of minced onion

1 clove of minced garlic

2 or 3 shakes of tabasco or Crystal sauce

1/2 tsp of salt

1/4 tsp of ground pepper

3 whole eggs, separated

2 extra whites

1/2 cup of jalapeno jack cheese grated

soft butter, enough to coat the souffle dish

scant amount of parmesan cheese for lining souffle dish and a brown topping

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Drain, chop the cooked collards. Reserve.

Melt bacon grease, add onions and cook until translucent.

Add garlic and cook briefly.

Stir in flour and cook briefly over med low flame.

Add milk to base and whisk vigorously to incorporate.

Cook over medium heat until you have a thick roux base.

Cool slightly.

Temper 3 eggs yolks with the base and stir well.

Add collards, seasoning and jalapeno jack cheese to thick base.

Whip five egg whites separately until full peaks are formed, stiff but not dry.

fold egg whites into the base.

Butter souffle mold.

Sprinkle well with grated parmesan.

Fill with lightened collard mixture.

Sprinkle top lightly with parmesan cheese.

Bake in hot oven for 25 minutes. May need to add a minute or two to cook thoroughly.

You want it to puff and the center just barely set. You want the center airy soft, not dry to the bone.

A dash of peppered vinegar isn't out of place on top at serving time.

I am crazy about collards, but you can't find them in Germany!

Pity you can't get collards in Germany. Substitute a swiss chard or if that fails, use spinach. It will still make a savory bacony souffle.

Well, ok, the cardio doc would have a fit with this one, but man oh man, does that sound good! Hope the teen converts - how can she not with bacon, cheese, butter???? I've never tried collard greens, but I may just have to try this when I can, because I can't imagine that it isn't 100% delicious...nice one, notcho!
