To prepare the cabbage, remove the outer leaves and quarter a small head or 1/2 of a larger head.

Core and place in a steamer above 1 inch of boiling water.

Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and when it is hot carefully scoop up heaped tablespoons of the potato mixture and use a spoon or spatula to ease them out of the spoon into the pan.

Gently flatten the mounds slightly with the back of a spoon or a spatula but dont worry if this is hard to do if they stick -- because when you flip them over you can flatten them into pancakes.

Brown on the first side about 2 or 3 minutes and using a spatula, flip the mounds over and gently push them down so that they will be shaped like pancakes.

Brown on the other side and remove to a baking sheet.
