Gourmet Cabbage Butter - Transform Your Greens!

1. 1

   To make the butter, put everything EXCEPT the butter into the bowl of a food processor, whizz until finely chopped and then add to the butter.

2. 2

   Mash everything together until all is incorporated, roll into a sausage shape and store in greaseproof paper in the fridge or freezer as needed.

3. 3

   To make the cabbage half it and cut out the core.

4. 4

   Separate the leaves starting at the outside and cut any large ones into halves and quarters.

5. 5

   Bring a pan of water to the boil, add a little salt along with the cabbage, bring back to the boil, lower the heat just a little and simmer for 5 minutes ONLY.

6. 6

   Have a large bowl of ice water ready and immediately plunge the cabbage into it to stop the cooking process - this is really important.

7. 7

   Once cold, drain the cabbage well and reserve until needed.

8. 8

   Melt a large hunk of the flavoured butter in a pan over a medium heat and allow to sizzle for just less than 1 minute without browning.

9. 9

   Add the prepared cabbage (you may have to do this in 2 batches) and heat gently until hot, completely coated with the butter and any excess water has evaporated off.

10. 10

    Season with a little salt and plenty of pepper.

    Fight over the last pieces and dream about having your next cabbage fest!
