Method

  1. Shred the cabbage into thin strips, finely dice the onion3, grate the carrot4 on a box grater, and slice the sausages into rounds.

  2. Heat the oil in a pot over medium heat, then sauté the onion3 and carrot4 for 5 minutes until soft.

  3. Add the cabbage and cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it wilts and reduces in volume.

  4. Stir in the tomato5 paste and 100 ml of water, season with salt and pepper, and mix well. Simmer covered on medium heat for 15 minutes.

  5. Add the sausages, stir, and cook for another 5 minutes until the cabbage is tender and the sausages are heated through.

  6. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then serve hot.

Tips

Why it works
Sauté onions and carrots first to soften them and release their sweetness before adding cabbage, which prevents a raw taste and ensures even cooking.
Substitutions
Use smoked sausage instead of regular for a deeper flavor; swap tomato paste for 50g crushed canned tomatoes if you prefer a chunkier sauce.
Common mistakes
Overcooking the cabbage turns it mushy and grayish; check tenderness by piercing with a fork after 20 minutes.
Storing and reheating
Stores 4 days in the fridge; reheat in a pot with 20ml water over medium heat for 5 minutes. Freeze for 3 months.
Serve with
Pair with boiled potatoes or rye bread for a filling lunch, especially on cold days.

In short

  • In the planner this dish is cooked for two days: reheat on day two.
