BRAISED WHITE CABBAGE

Steps:

• Pour the stock into a large pan, then add bacon and pick in the thyme leaves. Place over a medium heat and bring to the boil.

PAN FRIED CABBAGE WITH BACON AND ONIONS RECIPE

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.

TRADITIONAL IRISH BACON, CABBAGE, AND PARSLEY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place bacon in a large pot and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. If bacon is very salty, a white froth will form on surface of water. In this case, discard water and start again. Repeat process until no froth forms on surface of water; drain.

CABBAGE AND BACON

BACON AND CABBAGE LOAF

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to a moderately hot temperature.
• Lightly grease a loaf pan.
• Heat the butter in a sauté pan (preferably non-stick) and sauté the diced capsicum, bacon, onions and garlic until the capsicum and onions are just beginning to soften.
• Add the potato and cabbage and, while stirring, sauté the mixture for about 5 minutes or until the cabbage has softened.
• Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl to help it to cool.
• Add the herbs: the marjoram, thyme and parsley.
• Once the mixture has cooled, stir in the flour, the lightly beaten eggs and the grated parmesan.
• Stir until all the ingredients are well combined.
• Press the mixture into the lightly greased loaf pan.
• Bake in a moderately hot oven for about 40 minutes or until firm.
• Serve with salad and tzaziki, your favourite sauce or salsa or with my warm cucumber sauce, recipe #118672 for Salmon Loaf and Cucumber Sauce.
• Chef's Note: Because the sizes of potatoes and onions vary, because undoubtedly I've often used more than strictly "3 cups" of cabbage, and because sometimes I've certainly used more parmesan, the final quantity of the mixture has varied. And really exact proportions are not crucial with a recipe like this. So if you have more mixture than will fit into your loaf pan, butter an appropriately-sized small casserole dish for the spillover amount. Keep an eye on the dish with the smaller quantity in it: it will probably need to come out of the oven well before the loaf pan.

CABBAGE WITH BACON & ROOTS

Steps:

• In a large pan melt the butter. Add the bacon and sizzle for 5 mins until golden. Add the garlic and thyme to the pan and stir for 1 min. Take the pan off the heat, remove the bacon mixture and reserve.
• Add the celeriac and carrot batons into the now empty pan with a little of the bacon-flavoured butter. Gently cook for 10 mins until soft, then add the cabbage and cook for 5 mins until it starts to soften. Add the bacon and garlic back to the pan, then add the white wine. Allow the wine to evaporate for a few mins then season the mixture and serve. This can be made ahead and left in the pan, then reheated.

BOILED CABBAGE WITH BACON

• Bring cabbage, bacon, 2 cups water, and vinegar to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered until cabbage is very tender, about 3 hours, adding more water as needed.
• Whisk remaining 1/4 cup water and flour together in a small bowl and gradually add to cabbage mixture. Continue to simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.

SERIOUSLY GOOD BACON FRIED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Add bacon, in one layer, to a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until the fat renders and the bacon is crispy; 6 to 8 minutes. Take the pan off of the heat, and then use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a bowl and save for later.
• Remove all the bacon fat from the pan except for one tablespoon. (Leave more or less, depending on your preference. One tablespoon tastes great, but doesn't make the cabbage greasy.)
• Place the pan back onto medium-high heat then add the cabbage, garlic, red pepper flakes, and the salt. It might seem like too much cabbage for the pan, but as it cooks, the cabbage will wilt down.
• Cook, occasionally stirring until the cabbage is tender and some of the cabbage begins to turn light brown; 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the mustard, apple cider vinegar, and the reserved cooked bacon. Taste then adjust with more salt, pepper, and vinegar as needed.

FRIED CABBAGE WITH BACON

Steps:

• Take a large frying pan and begin by frying the onion and bacon together in olive oil for about 5 minutes. Then add the crushed garlic and cook for another 2 or 3 minutes. Now stir in the shredded cabbage (which will seem rather bulky at first, but as the heat gets to it, it will start to collapse) and keep stirring it now and then so it cooks evenly. Season with freshly milled pepper, but taste before adding salt because of the bacon. The cabbage should cook in about 10 minutes and still retain its crispness, but if you prefer it softer put a lid on the frying pan - which will give it some steam.

BACON CREAMED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Dice bacon and cook bacon in a skillet until browned. Once browned remove with a slotted spoon reserving bacon fat.
• Add onion to the bacon fat and cook until tender. Stir in garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add cabbage and cook 2-3 minutes or just until it starts to wilt.
• Add chicken stock and heavy cream and cook uncovered until cabbage is tender and sauce has thickened. Stir in bacon and season with salt & pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
