#FoodieExtravaganza ~ Haluski (Fried Cabbage and Noodles)

Posting day is always the first Wednesday of each month. If you are a blogger and would like to join our group and blog along with us, come join our Facebook page Foodie Extravaganza.

As usual when I am given a general suggestion or theme for a recipe reveal day, I run to pinterest to run a broad search and see what jumps out at me. This time this fantastic cabbage and noodles dish was "it" for me! I am so glad we gave this one a try. This is such hearty, filling, simple, rich rustic food to serve and enjoy. It comes together in a flash as well - only a couple ingredients need prep, then the meat and veggies fry up together while the noodles become tender and you toss it all together and season with salt and pepper. Done!

While the noodles were finishing their boil, it crossed my mind that this dish was begging for a creamy egg yolk, so I fried one up to serve along side and we really enjoyed the texture and flavor that added to this delicious dish!

Haluski (Fried Cabbage and Noodles) from A Family Feast

Ingredients
2 oz thick cut bacon, diced small
6 tablespoons butter, divided (more or less to taste)
2 cups onion, diced
1 ½ pounds green cabbage, cored and cut into bite-sized pieces
1 teaspoons kosher salt (more / less to taste)
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 ounces dry noodles (I used garden rotini, original recipe suggests egg noodles)

Instructions

1. In a medium to large skillet, over medium high heat, cook pancetta in 2 tablespoons of butter until crisp. Add onions and sauté for 2 minutes. Add 2 more tablespoons butter, cabbage, salt and pepper, cover and once mixture is hot, reduce to medium and cook for ten minutes.
2. While cabbage mixture is cooking, cook No Yolks® noodles according to package direction and drain.
3. Once cabbage is tender, remove cover and add drained noodles.
4. Add remaining butter (if needed) and cook to melt and bring to serving temperature.
5. Season with additional salt and pepper as desired.

Serving suggestion: fried egg on top, or on the side.
