Once upon a time, my husband told me that he didn't like cooked cabbage. "Ah ha," I thought, "a challenge!" So I made a dish based on my "Simmered Leeks" recipe that works so well, and — let's just put it this way: he changed his mind. He loves it when I make simmered cabbage! A very simple and tasty way to use this much-maligned veggie.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/2 head cabbage, chopped into approx 1 inch squares or pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper, to taste
1 cup chicken broth or vegetable broth (I prefer it with the chicken)
3 tablespoons dry sherry (optional)

Directions

1
Heat oil and butter in large heavy and wide saucepan or saute pan; add cabbage, salt, pepper, and stir over low heat for 5 minutes.
2
Add broth (I usually add a bit of sherry, too) and bring to boil, cover and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often, for about 15 minutes or until cabbage is tender.
3
Raise heat to medium, uncover and let juices reduce to about half (be careful not to let burn).
4
Taste and adjust seasoning, serve hot.

Wonderful recipe the flavour of the cabbage was perfect. I used chicken broth and the sherry everyone loved it. I had a savoy cabbage in the fridge so that's what I used

I really liked this recipe. I had 1/2 a head of cabbage and just couldn't figure out how I wanted to cook it. I did not use sherry and it turned out really good.

Cabbage cooked this way is much better than the way I boiled it to death in butter and water. My DH said it has a "Great Taste for Cabbage". He also asked me to cook it this way from now on. So we have another keeper here. (Just between me and you, I think the chicken broth and dry sherry is what makes it the best!) Thanks for sharing!

This receipt was great--it was just like what they have at the Golden Corral--actually I think it was better. Very easy to fix. Thanks for a GREAT receipt.
