4 servings

Ingredients

650 g green cabbage
140 g butter, divided
550 g ground beef
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp onion powder
¼ tsp pepper
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
85 g leeks, thinly sliced
19 g (110 ml) fresh basil, chopped
240 ml mayonnaise or sour cream, for serving

 

Instructions

Shred the green cabbage finely with a sharp knife or in a food processor.

In a large frying pan, over medium heat, melt half of the butter. Add the cabbage and
fry for about 10 minutes, or until just softened.

Add vinegar, salt, onion powder, and pepper. Stir and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until well
incorporated. Transfer the sauteed cabbage to a large bowl.

Heat the rest of the butter in the pan. Add the garlic and leeks, and sauté for a minute.
Add meat, and continue frying until cooked through. Sauté until most of the liquid has
evaporated.

Add tomato paste and mix well. Lower the heat a little and add reserved cabbage and
fresh basil. Stir until cooked through.

Adjust seasoning and serve with a dollop of sour cream or mayonnaise.
