Simple cabbage and potato recipe

[DaveBB]

Years ago, I ran across a simple cabbage and potato recipe.  It was made for microwave use.  I think it was as simple as chopped cabbage, a cut up potato, and some salt.  But for some reason, I haven't been able to get it right.  Can't find the recipe on the net anywhere.  I just want something healthy and energizing (and inexpensive) for lunch at work.

Anyone familiar with this recipe?

I think it did, maybe that was the trick.

I work in a chemical plant Maverick.  Smelling a little cabbage is the least of the smells.

I never mess my cabbage up with potatoes.

 I start with a large pot of boiling water. Add in 12 ozs of smoked bacon cut up, salt, and pepper.  Bring that to a rolling boil. I quarter a head of cabbage and add that to the pot of boiling water. In about 30 minutes you will have some delicious cabbage with a little smokey flavor from the bacon.

I agree, Shuffler. Cabbage and some carrots is good, but potatoes?

My favourite is to slice cabbage with some onion, garlic and carrots plus some barley corns into a large clay pot along with some stock. On top of that a nice thick slice (1-2") of pork shoulder or ham with bone and rind. Letting that simmer overnight in the oven...

Cabbage dishes get better every time you heat them whereas potatoes don't like reheating.

Cabbage simply needs to be rolled around a nice stuffing of pork,beef and rice,then cooked in tomato juice!

  My wife makes the best cabbage rolls in the world!!!

Is it a crime in Eastern Europe to have more than 9 cabbages as this causes currency fluctuations?

Not if they have managed to ferment them in time.

At the risk of showing our estrogen side, can you share that recipe?
Love cabbage rolls! My wife doesn't have it down to an art yet so I'm always looking for optional recipes.
