IRISH HERITAGE CABBAGE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven's broiler.
• Place cabbage into a large pot. Add water and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat until tender, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crisp. Drain and set aside. Drain cabbage, and drizzle with melted butter. Sprinkle with bacon and nutmeg. Transfer to a baking dish.
• Place under your oven's broiler until the top layer is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Serve with salt, pepper and vinegar as desired.

CREAMED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon slices to cool.
• Whisk the butter, flour, and salt into the drippings in the same pan. Stir in the cabbage, and cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat until cabbage is tender, about 15 minutes. Crumble the bacon; stir the bacon pieces and sour cream into the cabbage mixture.

IRISH MEATLOAF WITH CABBAGE CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix together the ground beef, lamb, white pudding, Cheddar, Montreal seasoning, granulated onion, pepper, basil, curry powder, oregano, salt, eggs and onions until well mixed. Add the breadcrumbs and mix well. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Shape into a log.
• On a baking sheet, put some large cabbage leaves down for the meatloaf to cook on. Place some celery sticks on top of the meatloaf (to keep the aluminum foil off of the top of the meatloaf), cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake to let it crisp up, about 15 minutes more.
• Slice and serve with the Cabbage Cream Sauce on the side.
• Heat a medium pot and add the oil. Brown the garlic, and then add the cabbage and saute until translucent. Deglaze the pot with the sherry, and then simmer until reduced by about half. Add the heavy cream and reduce by half again. Add salt and pepper to taste. Fold in the butter and serve hot.

IRISH BRAISED CABBAGE

• Add the sugar and cabbage and stir 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the water and mustard, cover and simmer on low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Then add the cream and cook, uncovered, for about 5 minutes more.
