This is one of those Southern dishes we consider to be "Comfort Food"... Even those who usually dislike cooked cabbage will warm up to this dish.
Ingredients
- 4 slice
- uncooked bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 small
- onion, chopped
- 1 small
- head of cabbage, cored and chopped into bite sized pieces - may use half of a large cabbage for lack of a smaller head of cabbage
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 c
- water (to help steam the cabbage)
How to Make SOUTHERN FRIED CABBAGE
- 1In a skillet, fry the bacon pieces and chopped onion together until the bacon is cooked and the onion is starting to brown. Do not drain bacon drippings.
- 2Add the cabbage and stir fry for several minutes, until the cabbage is coated with the drippings. Add 1/2 Cup of water and cover for a few minutes at medium heat. Uncover and stir frequently, replacing the cover each time. Reduce heat to med-low, cover and let cook about 20 to 30 more minutes, stirring occasionally until the cabbage is tender.
- 3Season with salt and pepper to your taste. Serve hot.
