Equipment
- large deep skillet or Dutch oven
Ingredients
- 14 oz kielbasa rope sliced
- 2 tablespoon olive oil or any sauteing oil such a avocado or vegetable
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- Ground pepper to taste
- 1 head cabbage medium sized, cored and chopped (green cabbage, not purple)
- 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- pinch crushed red pepper flakes optional
- ½ teaspoon caraway seeds optional
Instructions
- If you haven't already, slice the sausage, core and chop the cabbage, chop the onion and mince the garlic.
- Place a deep large skillet or Dutch oven over medium high heat. Pour in half the oil and add sausage. Sauté for about 5-6 minutes to render fat and lightly brown the edges of kielbasa slices. Remove the sausage to a bowl, leaving the fat in the pan.
- Dump the onions and garlic in the pan along with the whole grain mustard, salt and pepper. Saute for about 2 minutes. This is also when you would add the red pepper flakes or caraway seeds if you are using them.
- Add the cabbage a bit at a time, mixing to coat as you do. Once it is all in the pan, reduce heat to medium and cover to cook cabbage. Cook for about 6-7 minutes, stirring a couple times to evenly cook.
- Remove the lid and pour in the vinegar. Toss, then dump the kielbasa back in the pot.
Mix and cook another minute, uncovered. - Season with more salt and pepper to taste if you like before serving.
