"CREAMED" CABBAGE AND CAULIFLOWER



Categories     Milk/Cream     Dairy     Potato     Vegetable     Side     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Winter     Cabbage     Bon Appétit     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon butter
2 1/2 cups (packed) coarsely chopped savoy cabbage
2 cups small cauliflower florets
1/2 cup finely chopped peeled russet potato
2/3 cup low-fat (1%) milk
Pinch of ground mace or ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add cabbage and cauliflower and stir until cabbage wilts, about 3 minutes. Stir in potato. Increase heat to medium. Add milk and simmer until vegetables are tender and milk is reduced to sauce consistency and coats vegetables, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with mace, salt and pepper and serve.

Tips:

  • Select the right cabbage: Choose a firm, heavy Savoy cabbage with tightly packed leaves. Avoid any heads that show signs of wilting or bruising.
  • Prepare the cabbage properly: Remove the outer leaves and cut the cabbage into thin strips or wedges. This will help it cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the sauce.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or skillet: This will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the cabbage from burning.
  • Cook the cabbage slowly: Savoy cabbage takes a bit longer to cook than other types of cabbage, so be patient. Simmer it gently in the cream sauce until it is tender but still slightly firm.
  • Season the cabbage to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar for a brighter flavor.
  • Serve the cabbage hot: Savoy cabbage in cream is best served immediately, while it is still hot and creamy.

Conclusion:

Savoy cabbage in cream is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a main course. It is a great way to use up leftover cabbage, and it is also a budget-friendly meal. With its creamy, flavorful sauce and tender cabbage, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
