SOUTHERN FRIED CABBAGE WITH ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large skillet or pot warm olive oil and butter on medium heat.
• Add onion and garlic - sauté until they become soft and slightly lucid.
• Now add half of the cabbage, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, and stir.
• Add remaining cabbage stir, cover, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes.
• Cook until tender but not so much that it becomes easily mashed. The fork should penetrate large cabbage veins easy.
• I like to caramelize the dish a bit by cooking with a lid for half the cooking time then stick around and watch and stir a couple of times until the edges of the cabbage turn a little brown. The flavor will be sweet and savory.

FRIED CABBAGE WITH BACON, ONION, AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large stockpot and cook over medium-high heat until crispy, about 10 minutes. Add the onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion caramelizes; about 10 minutes. Immediately stir in the cabbage and continue to cook and stir another 10 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes more.

BONNIE'S FRIED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large pot or Dutch oven and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels and reserve drippings in the pot.
• Melt butter in bacon drippings in the pot over medium heat. Stir cabbage, onion, salt, pepper, and sugar into butter and bacon drippings. Cover the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage and onion are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Crumble bacon into cooked cabbage.

NANA'S SWEET AND SOUR CABBAGE

Steps:

• Saute onion in butter until golden brown.
• Add the sugar, vinegar, caraway, pepper and salt. Mix.
• Add the purple cabbage and toss well with the wet ingredients.
• Cook covered (dutch oven works best) over medium heat about 40 minutes or until cabbage is tender.

NANA'S STUFFED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Boil cabbage in water about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and cool.
• In a bowl, mix the ground beef, rice, grated onion, ketchup and egg, and season with salt and pepper.
• In another bowl, combine canned tomatoes, tomato soup, brown sugar and lemon juice.
• Separate cabbage leaves and roll about 2 to 3 tablespoons of the beef mixture into each leaf, tucking in the sides. If you have leftover beef, roll it into tiny meatballs.
• Pour some of the tomato mixture into a deep pot. Crumble a handful of ginger snaps into it, then cover with a layer of rolled cabbage leaves (and tiny meatballs, if you have any), then one layer of sliced onion rings. Repeat until all cabbage rolls are used.
• Cook on low heat, covered, about 2 1/2 hours. When nearly finished, prepare buttered noodles, and serve with stuffed cabbage.
