Cook until fork tender and then shut off heat, remove carrots and using an immersion blender blend up 1/2 the taro roots until nice and creamy. Add in your carrots and chopped collard greens and cover and let the remaining heat in stew cook your greens  (You don’t want to over cook them, just cook them until they change color). Check the thickness of your stew and if too thick add a little bit more water, and season with salt and pepper… go easy on the salt.
