Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 medium white cabbage (( I used savoy cabbage, but the regular white one can do))
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tbsp freshly-chopped dill

Instruction

  • Shred the cabbage, sprinkle salt over it and rub it with your hands. Set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Meantime, heat up the oil in a large pan, and fry the onions on a low to medium heat until golden.
  • Add the peppers and cabbage in batches if necessary to allow it to soften - once it's soft, it will reduce its volume.
  • Keep stirring with a wooden spoon, when the cabbage is starting to soften, cover it with water and leave to cook on a medium heat until very tender.
  • Season with more salt if needed, add the black pepper, tomato paste and dill and cook for a further 5 minutes.
  • Serve hot with polenta and chilli peppers.
