Sautéed Cabbage and Onions

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. 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.
