Instructions

  1. Chop: Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage, then quarter it and remove the core. Slice the quarters into long, thin strips. If the quarters are large, you can halve them crosswise before slicing to avoid excessively long strips. Chop the onion finely.1.8-2 lbs cabbage/ 800-900 g
  2. Sauté: Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the pot. Cook the onion for a few minutes until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the cabbage and stir well. If the cabbage doesn’t fit in the pot at first, add only half and stir for a few minutes until it reduces in volume. Then, add the remaining cabbage. Stir fry the cabbage for about 4 minutes.2 tablespoons butter + 1 medium onion
  3. Stir in sweet paprika powder and thyme or savory; stir for 1 minute.1 teaspoon sweet paprika powder + 1 teaspoon thyme
  4. Simmer cabbage: Add about ⅔ cup/ 150 ml of water. Cover tightly and cook on low heat for 20-25 minutes or until the cabbage is cooked to your liking, stirring every 5-6 minutes. Adjust the taste with salt, pepper, sugar, and vinegar. Be generous with the salt, taste several times and add more if necessary.1 teaspoon sugar + 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar + fine sea salt and ground black pepper
  5. Cook the noodles while the cabbage is cooking. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add salt generously and cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Drain the noodles, reserving about ½ cup/ 125 ml of the cooking liquid.1 lb egg noodles / 450-500 g
  6. Combine haluski: Add the noodles and the remaining butter to the cabbage pot and stir well. If the dish seems too dry, add some reserved pasta water.2 tablespoons butter
