HALUSKY WITH CABBAGE

Good afternoon!

I am on a small roll here with the truly Old Country recipes. I don't think this one is on anyones' calorie restricted diet, but it tastes good. Fats generally do. It tends to be gaseous. So pass on the beer unless you live alone or will soon be alone after you eat this dish. Am I the only one who finds this amusing?

Remember to check the sidebar for a link to the free cookbooks.

On with the show.

HALUSKY WITH CABBAGE

Cabbage:
  • 1 large head cabbage, chopped
  • 2 Tbsp. bacon dripping or oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1½ tsp. salt

Melt bacon drippings or oil in saucepan. Add chopped cabbage, onions, seasonings and fry over low heat, stirring often.


Dumplings:

  • 3 medium potatoes (grated)
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups flour

Mix together all ingredients using enough of the flour to make a soft dough.

Boil water and drop 1 teaspoon of dough at a time into boiling water. Boil 5 to 10 minutes. Drain dumplings well.

Add to fried cabbage mixture and salt and pepper to taste.

Variations: Instead of the cabbage mixture, add onions sauteed in margarine to dumplings with colby cheese.

Enjoy!

You bad, bad person. If you did not add the comment about the beer, I would have just read the recepy, thought it sounded nice, and moved on. But to have that with beer! Last time I ate something similar (and washed it down with beer) was about 15 years ago, and I still remember the taste.Devine!
I will have to feed it too to my husband, so that we smell bad together.
Ok, off I go to put on extra 2 kilos around my hips.....
