Categories     Side Dish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 small head green cabbage (about 2 1/2 pounds)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ tablespoon apple cider vinegar (plus additional to taste)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut the cabbage in half from its top down through its core. Place the cut-side down on your cutting board, then slice it as thinly as possible around the core so that you have fine ribbons. Discard the core.
  • Heat a large saute pan or similar heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and butter. Once the butter is melted, add the cabbage, salt, and pepper. Saute for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and begins to brown. Don't feel like you need to constantly stir it. Leaving cabbage undisturbed for a minute or two as you go is what will allow it to develop brown caramelized bits (aka FLAVOR).
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the apple cider vinegar. Taste and add a bit of additional salt and pepper if you like, or a splash more vinegar if you'd like to add more zippy and acidic flavors. Sprinkle with thyme. Serve warm.

This recipe came about because I had leftover cabbage from our St.Patrick's Day dinner. Its a fairly common recipe but this is a little sweet & spicy, everyone who tastes this asks me for the recipe and it is sooo easy.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups savoy cabbage, - shredded (this equals about 1/2 a large cabbage)
1 medium onion, - diced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried chipotle powder (I use Hot Today Chili Tomorrow)
6 tablespoons butter, - no substitutes

Steps:

  • Core and shred your cabbage, I do a rough chop, and put aside in a bowl. Then dice your onion, making the pieces medium size.
  • Take a 10"skillet and place about 2-3 tablespoons butter, melt the butter and saute the onions until they just start to turn brown around the edges. Add the cabbage and gently fold with the onions, add the remaining butter (just put it in on top of the cabbage,it will melt). Place lid on skillet and simmer at medium heat for 5 minutes. Then uncover, stir the mix and add all your spices. Stir again and place the cover back on and simmer for another 5-7 minutes.
  • We like a little body to ours, if you like your cabbage soft just simmer a little longer.
  • This is easy, quick and yummy. You can add caraway seeds or other spices to alter to your own tastes.

SAUTéED CABBAGE AND ONIONS

Steps:

  • I find that when I buy a good-sized green cabbage and use a small amount in a recipe, the remainder often languishes in the fridge. This is an ideal way to use up green cabbage while it still has some flavor. For this preparation, you can use half or even most of a cabbage. In a large skillet or stir-fry pan, sauté a quartered and thinly sliced onion in some olive oil. When it starts to turn golden, stir in thinly sliced cabbage. Cook, covered, until the cabbage wilts. If the pan dries out, add just enough water to moisten. Once the cabbage is wilted, uncover and cook until both the cabbage and onion begin to brown, stirring frequently. Add a sprinkling of poppy seeds, if you like.

SAUTEED CABBAGE

This is very yummy! Red cabbage has a much better flavor than green, so it is better to use. Any spices you want can be used, but salt and pepper is simplest.
