Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 lb Hot Italian sausage
1/2 Green cabbage head
1 lg Onion -- diced
2 cl Garlic -- minced
16 oz Can Italian tomatoes
4 tb Olive oil
Pepper and salt -- to taste
A simple and delicious, one pot meal. The cabbage tastes like
ambrosia! Savoy cabbage is preferred by some.
In a large, heavy boiler saute onion and garlic until onions are
translucent. Add the roughly chopped cabbage, mix well, cover, and
cook over medium heat until the cabbage is wilted. Be careful not to
burn the cabbage or the onions! Add all of the tomatoes from the can,
without the juice. There is no need to break them up. Cut the Italian
sausage into bite size pieces and add to the pot. Pepper and salt to
taste. Simmer on low for 1-1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. There is
usually plenty of liquid from the cabbage but if not add some of the
juice from the canned tomatoes. Should there be too much liquid, tip
the lid for the last half hour to let some evaporate.
It can be served by itself as a main or side dish but I prefer to
serve it as a sauce over penne. It is even better the next day.
