Herbed Potatoes And Cabbage Recipe
- Details
- September 05
Tonight's meal was a lightly cooked carrot and cabbage recipe, spiced with my Indian mix and topped with walnuts. I also made some herbed potatoes, since living on just cabbage isn't too fun. I had a flash of the Bucket family in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory there.
After arriving in Croatia into Dubrovnik and spending a few days there, Phil and I moved north to Bajnice. It's a small town just south of Split, which is the 2nd largest city in Croatia after the capital, Zagreb.
We're both excited to have a great spot right over the sea, with internet access and a kitchen right in the room. Although a bit lacking in variety, the local grocery store had some nice looking cabbage.
Also included in tonight's video is a free tutorial on how to use the world's smallest cutting board, although I realized later that I actually have a smaller one at home.
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Time from start to eating: 35 minutes
Makes 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 potatoes, scrubbed and cut into wedges
- pinch salt
- 1/2 head cabbage, sliced
- 4 carrots, sliced
- pinch salt
- 1 tsp Indian Spice Mix
- 2 tsp onion and garlic mix
- 1 Tbsp Italian Herb Mix
- 2 Tbsp walnuts
Directions
- Put the potatoes in a large pot with enough water to cover them. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, heat a pan to medium and add just enough water to cover the bottom of the pan. Add the carrots, cabbage and a pinch of salt. Stir the salt through as best you can, and leave the vegetables to steam.
- When the potatoes are just soft, turn off the heat and drain the water. Add the Italian Herb Mix along with 1 tsp of the onion and garlic mix. Stir to combine, and leave on the hot (but not on) burner.
- When the cabbage has wilted, but is not fully soft, add the Indian Spice Mix and the other tsp of onion and garlic powder. Stir to combine, and leave on the heat for another minute or two. Sprinkle some walnuts over the cabbage dish to serve.
