I remember when I was growing up watching my great aunt cook and listening to all her tips on cooking and was thinking about her fried cabbage.... so this morning (new years day) I decided to use up the cabbage I had left in the refrigerator. I added my own touch to my aunts way of steaming. She just usually steamed her cabbage in bacon grease, I like to kick my food up just a notch! :) The measurements in this recipe might be off a bit but the main thing is getting the flavor of the spices. Ingredients:
1 small head of cabbage, shredded |
onion, chopped |
1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced and chopped |
1 teaspoon margarine (i use i can't believe its not butter) |
3 tablespoons bacon grease |
2 teaspoons black pepper |
1 teaspoon beau monde seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon salt, to your taste (i use accent) |
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (i use johnny's seasoning salt) |
1 dash cayenne pepper |
pam cooking spray (cooking sray) |
Directions:
1. In a large frying pan on medium heat, spray pan with Pam.
2. Add bacon grease, turn heat down.
3. Add butter and sauté onion and mushrooms in grease. (this will caramelize).
4. Add rest of seasonings (pepper, beau monde, salt or accent and cayenne pepper opt.).
5. Add shredded cabbage, stir well to blend seasoning.
6. Cover with lid and steam on low for 20 minutes or until tender.
