How To Make cabbage potato soup

• Step 1
  Cook the bacon in the butter until it is lightly browned, then add the onion and cook for a few minutes, until the onion just begins to brown.
• Step 2
  Add the cabbage, and cook until it is very limp.
• Step 3
  Now add the diced potatoes and chicken stock. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Step 4
  Cover and simmer until the potatoes are almost tender. Add the noodles on top of the mixture and cover again.
• Step 5
  Cook for about 6 to 8 minutes, or until the noodles are almost done.
• Step 6
  Add the milk, cream and the 2 tablespoons of butter and correct seasonings. Stir and cover the pan again.
• Step 7
  Cook over low heat just until warmed through.
• Step 8
  SERVING SUGGESTION: You might like a little crisp, fried, crumbled bacon and/or chopped chives or green onion tops as a tasty garnish.
• Step 9
  TIP: Prepare onion by placing it in a covered vessel and placing it in the microwave on high, (skin on) for about 5 minutes.
• Step 10
  When the onion is done, the skin can be slipped off easily, and then chopped.
• Step 11
  This is equivalent to sauteeing to the point where the onion is translucent, but for this dish the onion still needs to be sauteed.
• Step 12
  Using this method cuts out the tears and most of the odor, not to mention, no use of fat!
