It's all about the Dimethyl Sulfide, stupid!

Basically when you cook cabbage it produces Dimethyl Sulfide which is that nasty smell and not a great taste. However all you need to do is cook it properly - either quickly or slowly. Anything in between is pants. I'll put another recipe on for cooking it quickly but this is lovely

Directions

Fry the bacon and when it's nice and crispy, turn the heat down and add the onion

Gently fry the onion for a few minutes - you don't want to brown it

Add the garlic and rosemary and fry for a minute or so

Add the cabbage and mix everything together and throw the wine in and season

Turn the heat really low and put the lid on. Leave it for an hour or so but it can go a bit longer as long as it doesn't dry out

Ingredients

  • A Savoy Cabbage (or any other cabbage)
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped or crushed
  • Pancetta or bacon cubes
  • A handful of rosemary
  • A glass of white wine

Variations

You can ut whatever you want in it but things that work are:

  • Grated lemon rind and the juice instead of the rosemary and wine
  • Worcester Sauce
