Turnip, Collard, or Mustard Greens

I don't know where you stand on sugar, but a fantastic way to eat the more bitter greens is:

rinse, then soak the greens for a little while
in a big pot put 1/2 C water, 3 tbs sugar, 2-3 cloves garlic, some pepper (I put about 8 shakes of the shaker)
move the greens to the pot (don't need to shake off water)
cook until greens are wilted, but still bright green.

Greens are delicious this way, but I haven't had it since starting E2L because of the sugar. I know some people have some sugar though, so I thought I'd post it. And not that much sugar is on the greens themselves when you pull them out of the pot. They turn out spicy-sweet and very, very good.
