a hearty stew that doesn’t require much work

Lightly fry the pork belly in a pan without adding any fat over a moderate heat, allowing some of the fat to render. In the meantime, peel and dice the onion and potatoes. Add the diced onions to the meat and sauté until golden brown. Then add the potatoes to the pan, season with salt and pepper, pour in about 250 ml of water, and simmer for 10 minutes. In the meantime, quarter the cabbage, wash and trim, remove the stalk and thick leaf ribs, and cut the cabbage into strips. Add it to the pan, adding a little more water if needed. Remove the meat, cut it up as desired, and return it to the stew. When everything is cooked, season well with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, and finish with a little butter if desired.
