Cook Time

20-25 minutes

Ingredients

300 g pasta (small, square noodles)
500 g white cabbage or pointed cabbage
1 onion
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp caraway (to taste)
salt and freshly ground pepper
200 ml vegetable stock
Freshly chopped parsley

Directions

Prepare the cabbage: Quarter the cabbage, remove the stalk and cut into 1x1 cm cubes.
Fry the onions: Peel and finely dice the onions. Heat the oil in a large pan or saucepan and fry the onion until translucent.
Caramelise the cabbage: Add the sliced cabbage and sugar. Gently caramelise and brown over a medium heat, stirring constantly.
Season and simmer: Add the caraway seeds (if using), salt and pepper to the cabbage. Deglaze with the vegetable stock, cover and simmer over a low heat for about 15-20 minutes, until the cabbage is soft but still al dente.
Cooking the pasta: Cook the pasta in plenty of salted water until al dente, drain and mix into the cabbage. Mix everything together well and season to taste. If necessary, add a little more pasta water.
Serving suggestions: Serve the cabbage pasta hot and garnish with freshly chopped parsley if you like.

Recipe Note

For an extra savoury touch, you can fry bacon cubes and add them to the onions. If you can't get hold of the typical pasta, you can simply use small noodles or break tagliatelle apart.
