Drain, add a knob of butter and sprinkle of WHITE pepper. For hardier cabbage leaves I've eaten them curried. But the cabbage and bacon idea sounds good too - for my DH of course, not for me! <br />Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11666316882168582862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-25069162366901905812016-06-08T07:22:56.335+01:002016-06-08T07:22:56.335+01:00sliced thinly and stir fried with walnuts and must...sliced thinly and stir fried with walnuts and mustard seeds is one of my favourites.
