FRIED CABBAGE WITH BACON, ONION, AND GARLIC (Page 3 ) | September 25, 2023

PREPARATION:

1st Step

Cook the bacon over medium heat in a large skillet or sauté pan until it becomes crispy and caramelized. This action imparts the entrée with a deliciously charred bacon flavor. Using a slotted utensil, remove the cooked bacon from the skillet, leaving the bacon fat behind.

2nd Step

Add the onions and garlic to the bacon grease in the same skillet. Typically, it takes 5-7 minutes for the onions to become translucent and begin to caramelize when cooked over medium heat.

3rd Step

Add the cabbage and season with a sprinkle of salt, freshly ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes, if desired. The cabbage will shrink and become tender as it incorporates the bacon, onion, and garlic seasonings.

4th Step

Continue cooking and stirring the cabbage mixture for approximately 10 to 15 minutes over medium heat, or until the cabbage has softened and taken on a golden hue. Observe it to prevent scorching, and modify the heat as necessary.
