Ingredients

  • 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
  • tablespoons caraway seed
  • 2 tablespoons deli-style mustard
  • 3 tablespoon heavy cream

Instructions

  • 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.

Notes

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.
