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?

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!
