Prepare the greens: If using fresh morogo, wash it thoroughly under cold running water at least 2-3 times to remove any dirt or grit. Drain well and roughly chop if the leaves are very large. If using frozen morogo, ensure it is fully thawed and squeeze out as much excess water as possible.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 2
Sauté aromatics: Heat the cooking oil in a large pot or deep skillet over medium heat (approximately 180°C / 350°F). Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until softened and translucent, stirring occasionally. Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring, until they begin to break down and form a slightly saucy consistency.
⏱️ 12 minutes - 3
Cook the morogo: Add the prepared morogo (fresh or thawed) to the pot. Stir well to combine with the onion and tomato mixture. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The greens will release their own liquid and wilt down significantly. Continue cooking, uncovered, for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow excess moisture to evaporate and the flavors to meld.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 4
Season and serve: Season the morogo with salt to taste. Add black pepper if desired. Stir well. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot.
