Cabbage Potato Saute Recipes

SAUTEED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Cut the cabbage in half and, with the cut-side down, slice it as thinly as possible around the core, as though you were making coleslaw. Discard the core.
• Melt the butter in a large saute pan or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the cabbage, salt, and pepper and saute for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and begins to brown. Season, to taste, and serve warm.

CABBAGE-POTATO MASH

Steps:

• Boil 1 pound quartered, peeled Yukon gold potatoes in salted water until tender. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, then drain. Saute 2 cups shredded cabbage in butter, 2 minutes. Add the reserved cooking water, cover and cook 3 minutes. Add the potatoes, 4 sliced scallions, 1/2 cup half-and-half, 2 tablespoons butter and a pinch of nutmeg. Mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

FRIED POTATOES AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Cover potatoes with cold salted water by 1 inch and bring to a boil, then boil, uncovered, until tender when pierced with a sharp knife, about 18 minutes. Drain in a colander.
• Heat butter in a 10-inch heavy nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté cabbage with salt and pepper, stirring frequently, until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Add potatoes, mashing and stirring them into cabbage while leaving some lumps and pressing to form a cake. Cook, without stirring, until underside is crusty and golden, about 10 minutes. Serve immediately.
