How To Cook Cabbage And Potatoes Recipes

HOW TO COOK CABBAGE AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Fry 5 strips of bacon in a skillet over medium heat until they're crispy. Chop the bacon into 1⁄2 to 1 inch (1.3 to 2.5 cm) pieces and place them in a deep skillet. Turn the burner to medium and stir the bacon occasionally as it fries. Cook the bacon until it's completely fried and crispy. The amount of time this takes depends on how thick your bacon slices are. Plan on frying the bacon for 5 to 10 minutes. Prep the cabbage and potato while the bacon is frying.
• Transfer the fried bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Once the bacon is completely crispy, carefully scoop it up with a slotted spoon. Put the pieces on the paper towel-lined plate, which will absorb the excess grease. Leave the grease in the skillet because you'll cook the cabbage and potato in it.
• Shred 1/2 a head of cabbage and chop 1 potato into 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) pieces. Rinse the vegetables and place them on a cutting board. To shred the cabbage, slice it in half through the core. Cut out the white core and discard it. Then, slice across the cabbage in 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) strips. Take the potato and cut it into 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) pieces. You can peel the potato or leave the skin on for added texture.
• Add the cabbage, potato, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Place the shredded cabbage and potato pieces into the skillet with the bacon grease. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon (1.4 g) of salt and 1/4 teaspoon (0.5 g) of ground black pepper. If you like a little extra crunch, sauté 1/3 cup (50 g) of diced onion in the skillet for about 5 minutes before you add the cabbage and potato.
• Cover the skillet and fry the mixture over medium heat for 7 to 8 minutes. Keep the burner on medium heat and put the lid on the skillet to trap the steam. Cook the cabbage until it's tender and stir the mixture every few minutes so it fries evenly. Wear oven mitts when you lift the lid off of the skillet and ensure that the steam doesn't burn you.
• Stir in the garlic and cook the uncovered mixture for 1 minute. Remove the lid and add 5 cloves of minced garlic. Stir until the garlic is incorporated and cook it just until it becomes fragrant.
• Turn off the burner and stir in the crispy bacon pieces. Sprinkle the fried bacon over the cabbage and potato mixture. Then, stir until it's combined and spoon the cabbage and potato mixture onto serving plates. Although you can store leftover cabbage and potatoes in the refrigerator, the mixture will continue to soften as it's stored. Eat the cabbage and potatoes within 3 days.

CABBAGE AND POTATO BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Rinse the cabbage under cold running water and remove the tough outer leaves. Cut the cabbage into quarters and remove the hard core. Cut the cabbage quarters into halves and place, rounded side down, in a roasting pan.
• Cut the potatoes in half crosswise and peel. Cut the peeled potato halves into quarters, and arrange in the roasting pan, alternating with the cabbage pieces.
• Fry the bacon in a heavy medium skillet for 7 minutes. Add the sliced onions, salt, and black pepper to the pan and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Evenly distribute the bacon mixture and pan drippings over the vegetables, then pour the chicken stock on top. Tightly cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake for 1 1/2 hours.
• Remove the pan from the oven and allow to sit, covered, for 15 minutes before serving. Serve the vegetables with the bacon and broth spooned over them.
