Mom's braised savoy cabbage

Ingredients for 4 servings:

• 1 large savoy cabbage
• 3 cubes of meat broth
• some caraway
• n. B. water
• Margarine or lard for frying

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 45 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 5 minutes

Remove the outer, unsightly savoy cabbage leaves and the stalk. Blanch the leaves, then rinse in cold water. Cut into bite-sized pieces and fry in a pan until slightly browned. Deglaze with water, add the caraway seeds and stock cubes, and stir until dissolved. Keep the savoy cabbage covered with a little water at a time and simmer until tender. If you prefer a drier dish, let the water evaporate until the end; if you prefer a less dry dish, simply leave some of the liquid in the pan. This dish goes well with boiled or jacket potatoes, meatloaf, or meatballs.
