Mom's Polish Stewed Cabbage Recipe

Recipe by: pretzeld

"My mother often served a delicious Polish dish made with cabbage. We always topped ours with a dollop of sour cream and sometimes served this over mashed potatoes. You can make this just using the cabbage, but I add kielbasa or smoked turkey for additional flavour. Delicious."

Footnotes
  • Cook's Notes:
  • If you would like cabbage with a little more bite, add another teaspoon vinegar after it has finished cooking.
  • Butter can replace the olive oil, if desired.
  • Try smoked turkey in place of the kielbasa.
  • Tip
  • Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.
