Cabbage with a twist

Wash, trim, and finely chop the spring onions. Finely chop the parsley. Place both in a bowl with the quark, semolina, and eggs. Season with salt and pepper, mix thoroughly, and let stand for about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, wash and trim the kale, remove the stems, and roughly chop. Blanch in boiling salted water for about 5 minutes. Drain. Melt the butter in a pan. Form the quark and semolina mixture into small patties and fry over medium heat for about 5 minutes, then turn and fry the other side until golden brown. While cooking, mix the parsley with lemon juice, olive oil, mustard, salt, and cayenne pepper. Season to taste. Stir in the drained kale and season again. If desired, you can add 2 sprigs of thyme to the quark mixture instead of the parsley.
