Braised Cabbage
Here are two ways: butter braised and broth braised:
Butter Braised:
4-6 tablespoon butter
2-3 teaspoon curry powder (optional)
8 cups finely sliced cabbage (this goes quickly with a sharp knife or a food processor)
Salt & pepper to taste
Heat 4 tablespoons of the butter with curry powder (if using) in a large saute pan. Add the sliced cabbage and stir to coat with butter.
Cover, lower heat, and cook gently for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the cabbage is tender. Season with salt and pepper. Add more butter if you like.
Broth Braised Cabbage:8 cups finely sliced cabbage (this goes quickly with a sharp knife or a food processor)
1/2 Cup chicken, beef or vegetable broth (or wine)
Salt & pepper to taste
2 tablespoon butter (optional)
Put all ingredients in a covered saucepan, bring to a boil, and cook for 5-6 minutes or until just tender, stirring or tossing occasionally.
Or, cook covered in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or longer, until tender. The timing depends on the cabbage variety and the size of the slices.
