Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds corned beef brisket
- 8 cups water
- 2 whole celery stalks
- 1 whole large onion
- 2 whole bay leaves
- 1 tablespoon black peppercorns
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 head white cabbage
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the corned beef brisket under cold water to remove any surface brine, then place it into a large pot.
Add the water, celery stalks (halved), large onion (quartered), bay leaves, black peppercorns, and peeled garlic cloves to the pot.
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 2.5 to 3 hours or until the beef is fork-tender.
While the beef is cooking, prepare the cabbage by removing the outer leaves, cutting it into quarters, and removing the core. Slice each quarter into thirds to get uniform pieces.
About 30 minutes before the beef is done, add the cabbage to the pot with the corned beef.
Remove the cooked beef from the pot and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
In a skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the cooked cabbage from the pot and sauté it for 5-7 minutes until lightly browned and tender.
Season the cabbage with sea salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve the sliced corned beef alongside the sautéed cabbage. Enjoy your keto-friendly meal!
