– from Nyusza
PASTA with CARAMELIZED CABBAGE
1 large Cabbage
3 tblsp. salt
3 tblsp. sugar
+/-1/2 c. virgin olive oil
1 Pkg. (500gm.) large bowtie pasta
Shred cabbage into a large bowl, or cut into 3mm. (1/8”) strips; sprinkle with
the salt, mix and let stand for 30 min.
Cook pasta in boiling water as per directions on package; do not overcook.
Drain and sprinkle with a little oil to prevent sticking.
Use a large non-stick coated frying pan with hot oil to gently brown the
shredded cabbage; continuously stirring to prevent burning.
Add more oil as required as cabbage absorbs it.
When cabbage is uniformly browned, add the sugar and continue stirring till well
combined and golden brown.
Add drained pasta and mix well.
Serve as is – sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and sour cream.
NB: This is to die for as a separate standalone dish, but could be served with
pineapple glazed ham and steamed sugar snap peas.
