BOILED BACON AND CABBAGE
January 24th, 2010
Serves 4
2 1/2 pounds of bacon ( a large ‘collar’ or ‘hock piece’)
- about 4 or 5 inches cubed
1 good-sized cabbage
Place the meat in a pot, cover with cold water and bring to
the boil. Add salt if required. Remove the surface sediment
and simmer for 30 minutes per pound of meat.
Quarter the cabbage and add to the pot. Cook gently for
about 1/2 hour, or until cabbage is cooked to your liking -
do not overcook! Drain and serve with new boiled potatoes
and mustard or brown (HP) sauce.
