How To Liven Up Cabbage

[johnk]

How can I cook cabbage to liven the taste up a bit, I find it a bit bland. Garlic or something?

[rowanwitch]

Polish style
Shred finely and cook quite slowly with a tin of chopped tomatoes. Lots of black pepper and a little ground caraway to taste.

Savoy cabbage or red cabbage I like cut into big chunks sprinkled with olive oil and roasted for about 40 mins

shred and toss in crispy bacon bits..black pepper

Chop it, boil for five minutes, drain, lightly fry in garlic oil.

fresh garlic grated on, black pepper, splash of lemon or that lemon pepper/crumbs that Waitrose sell (great product). Then some olive oil and roast @ 200C for about 30-40 minutes, just until the outer leaves are caramelising. Yum.

There's four options for you! :o}

Why not just open a tin of peas?

[bainbrig]

Onion, small amount of sliced garlic, fry.

After two mins, throw in the washed, chopped cabbage. Toss. (NO extra water).

Keep tossing slowly for 5+ mins. Add salt, check it’s done, serve.
