Savoy Cabbage Special

This is one of my specialities.

Ingredients

1 savoy cabbage
potatoes
2 apples, medium hardness
1 medium-sized onion
curry powder
butter

Remove the outer green leaves from the cabbage. Slice up the core, but do not include the very centre. Unravel the slices and place in a large pan with plenty of boiling water. Boil until soft and tender, 15 - 20 minutes.

Simultaneously boil the potatoes. Once done, mash them to a smooth texture - adding some butter and/or milk should help.

Fry the sliced onion(s) in a little oil until glazed. Remove the peel and core from the apples. Cut into rings, and the rings in turn into pieces of about 3/4 inch. Fry in a little oil, adding some mild curry powder.

Drain the cabbage and place in a large ovendish. Spread the apple and onion evenly over the cabbage. In turn, cover everything with the potato mash. Put some butter in dabs over the mash and brown under the grill for 5, max 10 minutes.

Serve with braised steak or similar
