1/2 pound sliced bacon
1 large head Savoy cabbage (about 2 pounds), thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper
1. Cut bacon into 1/2-inch pieces. Microwave bacon or
cook in a large, heavy skillet over moderate heat until
just crisp. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain.
(Reserve drippings for another use). Bring a large pot of
lightly salted water to a boil. Add cabbage; cook 10
minutes until crisp-tender. Drain well and pat dry with
paper towels. In the same pot, heat oil over medium
heat. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Add cabbage and
mustard; toss to coat evenly. Stir in bacon. Season to
taste with salt and pepper.
Savoy cabbage, with its distinctive wrinkled leaves, is a nice
change of pace from white cabbage. The touch of mustard
balances the flavors in this dish.
