Instructions

Make Halushki

1. Shred 1 large head of cabbage or use a food processor to do it for you. Red or green cabbage will work, however red cabbage will give this rather bland looking dish a bit of color.

2. Dice 1 large onion.

3. Add the chopped cabbage and diced onion to 1/2 cup of butter and fry until the cabbage is almost transparent. Use a pancake turner to flip the cabbage often to avoid burning.

4. Prepare the potatoes and noodles. Peel and cube 6 medium potatoes and boil them for 20 to 30 minutes or until you can easily cut them with a fork. Meanwhile, boil a 4 quart saucepan of water and add 1 large box of egg noodles. Boil the noodles for at least 10 to 15 minutes or until done.

5. Drain the potatoes and noodles and add them to the cabbage, onion, and butter.

6. Season the dish with garlic, salt, and pepper to taste and simmer for another 5 to 10 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

Tips & Warnings

• Add chicken breast to this dish to make a heartier meal.
