Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Green cabbage
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 teaspoons Caraway seeds
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage, then cut it into quarters and remove the core. Slice the cabbage into thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Add the unsalted butter and olive oil, allowing the butter to melt completely.
Add the minced garlic and caraway seeds to the pan. Sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
Add the sliced cabbage to the pan in batches if necessary, stirring to coat it in the butter and oil mixture.
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper evenly over the cabbage. Stir well to combine.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook the cabbage for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is tender but not mushy.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
Transfer the cooked cabbage to a serving dish. Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve warm as a side dish to complement meats, roasted vegetables, or grain-based dishes.
