- 1 head cabbage outer leaves removed, and cored and sliced into ¼" - ½" slices
- 1 red onion chopped
- 1 tablespoon grape seed oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 pound pre-cooked sausage like a Polska kielbasas, or smoke sausage, cut into 1" pieces
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1½ tablespoons caraway seed
- 2 tablespoons deli-style mustard
- 3 tablespoon heavy cream
Heat a large, high sided skillet over medium/high heat.
Add the oil, butter and cut sausage to the skillet.
Saute the sausage for 2-3 minutes, and add the chopped onion.
Stir well and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Add at least half of the sliced cabbage to the skillet along with the salt and pepper. Stir.
Cover the skillet and cook for approximately 10 minutes.
Remove the cover and add the remaining cabbage, stirring to combine.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for approximately 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium/low.
Stir in the caraway seed, mustard and cream.
Cook for additional 2-3 minutes, plate, and serve warm.
If substituting something other than a pre-cooked sausage, add additional cooking time to make sure the sausage is cooked through.
Substitutions for the deli-style mustard may be used. German-style, whole grain, Dijon, etc. Yellow hot dog mustard is not a good choice as it is too strong.
