Description

A great way to use leek and cabbage in a simple, vitamin C-packed side dish.

Ingredients

  • 5 slices streaky bacon
  • 2 red onions
  • 2 leeks, cut into rings
  • 1 cabbage, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon curly parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  1. In a dry frying pan or skillet, cook the strips of bacon until crispy.
  2. Remove the bacon from the pan and allow to drain on kitchen paper.
  3. Add 1 tbsp butter to the bacon fat in the frying pan, along with the onion and leeks. Cook gently over a medium-low heat until soft and translucent.
  4. Add the cabbage, and cook until tender, stirring regularly (about 5 mins). Mix through remaining butter and season to taste.
  5. Place the cooked vegetables on a serving plate, crumble the crispy bacon over the dish and scatter with finely chopped parsley.

Notes

Works well as a side dish with chicken or pork.
