About the Recipe: This cabbage and noodles dish just couldn’t be easier. It only uses a few ingredients, and the oven does most of the cooking. The dish is popular in Eastern Europe, especially in Hungary, Poland, and the Czech Republic. For a main dish, it can be enhanced with smoked meats or even sauteed mushrooms and onions. It makes a delicious attractive dish to serve with that spring supper.

Cook’s Note:  You can also make this dish with melted butter rather than brown melted butter. A friend gave me the recipe and called it butter cabbage.

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.; Grease deep casserole baking dish with cooking oil. Set aside.
  • Remove outer leaves of cabbage; cut cabbage into quarters; remove core; shred cabbage like making coleslaw.
  • In a small pan, melt butter; cook over medium high heat until lightly browned and melted.
  • Layer cabbage, placing butter and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper on each layer. Remember to leave some melted butter for the top layer. You will usually have about 3 layers.
  • Cover the dish or pot tightly with aluminum foil or oven pan top.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven.
  • Be careful when opening the pan as it will be very hot.
  • Let cool about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, swirl the cabbage with the noodles. Serve warm.

Yield:  Serves 4 to 6.
