Frizzled Cabbage

Ingredients
14 medium green cabbage (I used an entire Jersey Wakefield cabbage which measured about 5-6 cups after slicing)
2 tablespoons butter
Salt and pepper
4 cloves garlic, minced (Feel free to use more if you love garlic.  You can even throw in some shallot or onion if you’ve got it)

Instructions
1. Core and very thinly slice the cabbage.

2. Melt the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.  When it is bubbling, add the cabbage and garlic.  Stir occasionally and cook until mostly wilted, about 10 minutes. (If you’re using a more tender cabbage, this will take less time.)

3. Salt and pepper the cabbage.  Turn the heat down to medium-low and let cook, stirring every few minutes, until cabbage is starting to brown, about 10 minutes. 

4. Taste, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.

Comments
I didn’t grow up eating cabbage and I guess the best way to start to like any vegetable is to sauté it with butter.  Or bacon fat.  This recipe goes the butter route and is delicious.  The flavor of the cabbage really comes through in this simple dish.  Most often, I serve this with Corned Beef, but it is extremely versatile.  

This recipe came to me via a friend, and it came to her from Recipe Zaar.
