Grandmother’s Polish Cabbage and Noodles
A recipe passed down from my grandmother, this Polish dish is both easy to prepare and delightful. Adjust the butter quantity to your preference, and feel free to use either ham or kielbasa.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 head cabbage, cored and chopped
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1 (12 ounce) package farfalle (bow tie) pasta
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 ½ cups cooked ham, cut into bite-size pieces
- 2 pinches white sugar, or to taste
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat; cook and stir cabbage and onion until very tender, about 30 minutes.
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in bow tie pasta and return to a boil. Cook pasta until tender but still slightly firm, about 12 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
