HAM AND CABBAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat two tablespoons of the olive oil in a stockpot pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onions, carrots, and the ham. Cook, stirring every once and a while until the vegetables have softened and the onions are translucent; 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add the garlic, rosemary, black pepper, and the red pepper flakes. Cook, while stirring, for one minute. Stir in the cabbage, and then pour in the canned tomatoes and their juices as well as the stock. Add the bay leaves.
• Raise the heat to medium-high and bring the soup to a boil. Taste then adjust with salt. The ham does add some salt to the soup so you may not need a lot of additional seasoning.
• Partially cover the pot with a lid, and then reduce the heat to maintain a low simmer. Simmer for 20 minutes or until the cabbage, and other vegetables are tender.
• Remove the pot from the heat and remove the bay leaves. Stir in the lemon slices and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Taste and season with more salt and pepper. Serve.

• Wash a small head of red cabbage, and using a sharp knife, cut into wedges.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment, and place cut cabbage in a single layer.
• Drizzle liberally with olive oil and sprinkle on za'atar seasoning. I didn't use salt as most za'atar blends have salt, but feel free to add salt if needed.
• Roast for 20 minutes, and then lightly shake pan. Continue roasting another 25 minutes or until cabbage is crispy. Timing will depend on how small or large you cut the wedges.

BAKED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Cut the cabbage head in half. Cut each half again, making four wedges. Cut each of the 4 wedges to make a total of 8 wedges. Cut the core from each wedge on an angle.
• Place the wedges in a roasting pan. Salt and pepper the wedges, drizzle with a little bit of olive oil and lay the bacon pieces on the wedges.
• Using a small saucepan over low heat, melt 1/4 cup of butter. Cook and stir until the butter turns brown (being careful not to over cook, it will burn quickly). Drizzle over cabbage.
• Bake with the pan covered with foil for 30 minutes. Remove the foil, bake another 30 minutes or until cabbage is tender and starting to turn golden brown, serve immediately.

ROASTED RED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Slice cabbage into thin strips. I like to make mine about 1/8 to 1/4 inch wide. This ensures I'll get those crispy bits I want. Spread the shredded cabbage on a large baking sheet.

Cover the dish and allow it to sweat for 10 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, sugar and seasoning and cover the dish. Bake very gently at 325 degrees F for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

CREAMED CABBAGE AND HAM CASSEROLE

Steps:

• 1. Cook Minute Rice according to package instructions. One cup will make 2 cups cooked. Cook cabbage until tender, drain
• 2. Grease 9 x 13 inch casserole. Put rice in bottom and spread it out. Put cooked cabbage on top of rice and evenly distribute it.
• 3. In a bowl combine 2 tablespoons of the butter and the bread crumbs and set aside. I use sliced bread that is getting stale and tear it up into small pieces rather than the fine bread crumbs.
• 4. In a frying pan cook onions in remaining butter and olive oil until soft. Stir in flour, salt and pepper stirring constantly. It will quickly form a paste like product on the onions. Stir in the milk and continue cooking and stirring until mixture thickens and boils for 1 minute. Add ham and heat 1 minute more.
• 5. Pour over the top of the cabbage and spread it out evenly. Cover with the swiss cheese. Top with the bread crumbs and bake at 350° for 30 - 45 minutes until it is bubbly and the bread is starting to brown a bit.

Add all the other ingredients, using either the stock or the cooking liquid, and season with salt and pepper. Cover with the lid and cook on auto/low for 6-8 hours. Remove the hams, shred the meat, and stir it into the slow cooker. Serve with baked or roast potatoes. For the traditional method: Preheat the oven to 160°C/ 325°F/ gas 3.

Add all the other ingredients to the casserole, using either the stock or the cooking liquid, and tuck the hams in neatly. Season with salt and pepper, cover, and put in the oven for 2 hours.
