Ingredients

  • 1 medium head of cabbage ( 2 heads if young)
  • 1 onion
  • 2 carrots
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1-2 bay leaves
  • 3 grains allspice
  • 4 grains peppercorns

  • 2 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp sugar to taste
  • 1 pinch salt to taste
  • 1 cube vegetable bullion (optional)

Instructions

  • Wash and chop the cabbage. Cut the onion into small cubes. Peel and grate carrots on a coarse grater or cut into cubes. Melt the butter in a saucepan, fry the onion first, then add carrots and the cabbage. Fry several minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Pour water just enough to cover the cabbage. Add allspice, peppercorns and bay leaf. Add the bullion cube (optional). Simmer over low heat until the cabbage is tender.
  • Thicken cabbage with flour by making a roux. Season the cabbage to taste with salt, pepper, sugar and lemon juice.
  • It tastes best when it's sweet. Serve as an addition to both meat, fish and vegetarian dishes. Young cabbage stewed with carrots also tastes great as a main course with potatoes.
