Cabbage, Noodles and Sausage

 

Yum, yum, yum.  I made some Rotkohl (Rodkaal depending on the language) yesterday and since it needs a day for recovery (!)- I found this recipe that sounded delicious to go with it....and it was!!!!  I forgot it had peas and didn't have any but it was fabulous without them.  The color would have been nice. 

 

Ingredients

• 12 oz kielbasa or sausage, sliced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• ¼ cup salted butter
• 1 large onion, diced
• ½ head cabbage, chopped (approx. 6-7 cups)
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• ⅔ cup frozen peas
• 8 oz uncooked egg noodles
• salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

 

1. Cook noodles according to package directions, drain and set aside.
2. In a large saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil. Cook sausage until lightly browned.
3. Add remaining olive oil, butter and onion. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
4. Add cabbage and garlic. Cook until tender (10-15 minutes). Stir in peas, noodles and salt & pepper. Cook 2-3 minutes or until heated through.
