Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 strips thick cut bacon, diced
3 tbsp butter
1 onion, diced
6 cloves garlic, diced
1 head cabbage, diced
2 tsp fresh cracked black pepper
1 tsp celtic sea salt

Steps:

  • Cut bacon into thick chunks, pan fry until crunchy. Remove from pan and set aside.
  • Drain off most of the bacon fat - leave a little if desired for taste, but too much will give an oily texture.
  • Heat butter in large pan on medium-high heat until melted and foamy.
  • Add diced onions to pan, cook until soft and transparent, about 4 minutes. Stir to prevent sticking or burning.
  • Add garlic and cabbage to the pan, tossing evenly to coat in butter.
  • Generously season with salt and pepper.
  • Let cabbage reduce by half, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally as it cooks down to prevent burning and allow it to cook evenly. Add bacon back to pan.
  • When cabbage has lost much of it's volume and started to turn shiny, slightly translucent, and has lovely browned bits, it is ready to serve.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days, three months in the freezer.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet or wok to cook the cabbage, as it will produce a lot of steam. If your pan is too small, it will be more difficult to evenly brown the cabbage.
  • Make sure the cabbage is chopped into thin strips. This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the cabbage. If you do, it will steam instead of brown.
  • Cook the cabbage over medium-high heat. This will help it brown quickly and evenly.
  • Stir the cabbage frequently while cooking. This will help prevent it from burning.
  • Add the onion and bacon to the pan once the cabbage has started to brown. This will help flavor the cabbage.
  • Cook the cabbage until it is tender-crisp. This should take about 10 minutes.
  • Season the cabbage with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the cabbage immediately.

Conclusion:

Fried cabbage with onions and bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. It is a great way to use up leftover cabbage, and it is also a healthy and affordable option.
