Ingredients
  • 2 lbs Green cabbage
  • 1 tablespoons Butter
  • 1 cups Onion, chopped fine
  • 1 teaspoons Garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cups Dry white wine
  • 1/2 teaspoons Cumin
  • 1 Bay Leaf
  • 1/2 teaspoons Thyme
  • 2 Whole Cloves
  • 1/2 cups Water
  • 1 lbs Kielbasa, cut in half
Directions
  1. 1
    Cut away and discard the core of the cabbage. Cut the cabbage lengthwise into eighths, then cut each piece crosswise into 1/2-inch strips. You should have about 12 cups loosely packed. Set aside.
  2. 2
    Heat the butter in a heavy, flameproof casserole or Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid over moderately high heat.
  3. 3
    Add the pork chops to the casserole. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side, or until lightly browned.
  4. 4
    Scatter the chopped onion and minced garlic around the chops. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are wilted and fragrant.
  5. 5
    Pour in the dry white wine and stir to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  6. 6
    Add the prepared cabbage, cumin, bay leaf, thyme, whole cloves, and water. Stir to combine.
  7. 7
    Cover the casserole closely and simmer for 30 minutes, allowing the cabbage to become tender.
  8. 8
    Add the halved kielbasa sausage to the pot. Cover and continue cooking for another 15 minutes, until the sausage is heated through and the cabbage is very tender.
  9. 9
    Discard the bay leaf and whole cloves before serving.
