Sauerkraut is a wonderful dish to be eaten hot and cold. It can be eaten as a stand-alone side dish, or used as a filling for pies and pancakes. There is no difficulty in stewing cabbage deliciously, and the cost price is one of the lowest. The technology of how to stew cabbage in a frying pan is tasty and quick, it's easy to master, and the recipe will take root in the piggy bank of zealous housewives who like to pamper loved ones with goodies.

Meat, sausages, chicken cutlets, and other meat dishes always require a separate side dish. Stewed cabbage goes well with these dishes, especially with smoked meats. It is good both by itself and paired with boiled potatoes. It can be lightly fried, or you can make it melt in your mouth. It is easy to spice up the dish with paprika and tomato paste. The main thing is to master the basic recipe so that you can then fantasize for your own pleasure.

You will need (based on 2-3 servings)

  • large forks of cabbage - 700 g;
  • onion - large head;
  • 100 g of vegetable oil;
  • large carrots;
  • spices, salt to taste;
  • 100 ml of water or broth.

Finely chop the cabbage with a knife or on a special shredder. The main thing is that the stripes are neat and thin. Thick pieces will take longer to stew and cook unevenly, so the final result will largely depend on the shredder. Salt the chopped cabbage, shake your hands as you usually do for the sourdough: this will make it juicier. Dice the onion and grate the carrots. Preheat a skillet and pour in vegetable oil. Dip the cabbage and fry until crisp, stirring constantly to ensure even browning.

Now reduce heat, cover the dish, simmer until tender. 10 minutes before the end, if desired, you can add a tablespoon of tomato paste, then the cabbage will acquire a characteristic tomato light sourness. It is very simple to recognize ready-made cabbage: it becomes oily in texture, shiny, brown-golden. The total extinguishing time does not exceed 30-40 minutes.

The best combination of cabbage with herbs, and, surprisingly, fresh sour cream. The dish is served with a slice of Borodinsky brown bread.

Remember! Any cabbage is not suitable for stewing: young cabbage is too soft, it will give a lot of juice and it will turn out to be "boiled", but elastic heads of winter varieties (for example, the "Slava" variety), stew perfectly and release just enough juice to make the dish juicy. You need to choose such a head of cabbage by crunching: when squeezing in your hands, you should hear a characteristic crunch.

Cooking recipe with meat

Cabbage with meat is one of the best dishes for the cold season. Such a dish is often called a hodgepodge, it perfectly saturates, warms, but at the same time never overloads the stomach (especially if you use chicken instead of pork). With proper serving, the dish can easily become companionable with foamy drinks: just season it with fragrant sweet mustard, sprinkle with fresh herbs. Cabbage with meat, a red variety, is liked to be served in cozy Czech taverns.

For delicious cabbage, prepare: (for 3-4 servings)

  • large forks of cabbage - 1.5 kg;
  • pork ribs, chicken thighs or legs, chicken fillet - 1 kg;
  • 2 large onions;
  • 150 g of vegetable oil;
  • two medium carrots;
  • salt, spices.

The first thing to do is fry the meat over high heat until crisp. It is better to cook it in a separate frying pan. Prepare the cabbage in the same way as in the classic recipe, but at the stage of roasting the cabbage, add pieces of meat, salt, spices to your taste. The dish is stewed over low heat for about an hour. Served with mustard sauce, sour cream, bread, herbs.

The culinary trick! Remember, almost any type of meat can be used for cabbage, and each will work great. However, if you like beef, it is better to take the youngest one - it will cook faster this way.

With potato

Potatoes, like meat, add solidity to the dish, and in addition can be served as an independent complex side dish. The cooking time will increase slightly and more water or broth will need to be added.

In general, the recipe for stewed cabbage with potatoes is based on the basic method. After quick frying in a skillet, simmer for 10 minutes and then combine with potato cubes. It remains to add a little water, spices, and then simmer the dish until fully cooked for another 20-30 minutes. An option for a children's menu is to boil and mash potatoes, and serve the finished mashed potatoes separately.

Interesting fact. Ever wondered how the chefs prepare cabbage in traditional canteens and why is it so delicious? It turns out that a spoonful of sugar and a tablespoon of vinegar 5% give a pleasant aftertaste to cabbage. The dish is usually seasoned at the very end, 5-7 minutes before cooking.

With sausages

Sausages, sausages, any smoked meats are best combined with cabbage. This is a classic of the culinary genre, and you can always sing the praises of how delicious the dish is!

With all this, anyone can cook a meal if desired - the main thing is to prepare smoked meats in advance, and it is better to take different types.

Suitable for cooking:

  • pieces of sausages, small sausages;
  • boiled, semi-smoked sausage;
  • smoked chicken, pork ribs.

The more different pieces are used, the more flavorful the finished dish will be. But, if you want to feed your family quickly and satisfyingly, it is quite possible to get by with sausages alone. It will be very tasty to combine cabbage with potatoes and sausages if the potatoes are added during the cooking process at the half-surface stage and stewed along with the main course.

Smoked meats are finely chopped into cubes or strips, fried in a separate skillet and added to the stewed cabbage 10 minutes before being cooked. The most relish is to allow all the ingredients to combine: smoked meats should give the cabbage a pleasant aftertaste, and they themselves should absorb the juices of this vegetable. Serve smoked cabbage hodgepodge with black bread and herbs.

Can't stand the smell of cabbage while cooking? Place a large slice of stale bread, either black or white, in the dish. It will absorb the unpleasant odor. Before the end of cooking, it is enough to remove the soaked bread with a slotted spoon.

With the addition of mushrooms

In the mushroom season, one simply cannot but pamper the family with cabbage stewed with wild mushrooms. True, the dish cannot be called light: mushrooms are difficult for the body to assimilate, so it cannot be included in the children's diet.

Combine with cabbage:

  1. White mushrooms.
  2. Honey mushrooms.
  3. Butterlets.
  4. Chanterelles.
  5. Russula.

How to cook mushroom cabbage? Peel the mushrooms and cook until tender in salted water. Fry with onions in butter. Add mushrooms to the cabbage stewed in a pan, mix thoroughly and let simmer for another 15 minutes. Such a hodgepodge goes well with dill - feel free to add a large bunch of fresh herbs. Separately, you can serve mashed potatoes, boiled potatoes and a sauce based on sour cream and horseradish. In the winter season, change freshly picked wild mushrooms for frozen ones, or buy champignons - the cabbage will turn out to be no less fragrant.

Simple delicious chicken recipe

Cabbage is a low-calorie vegetable available all year round. In the summer you can buy a young one, in the winter add sauerkraut to the dish, due to which the food acquires a pleasant sourness. Nutritionists strongly recommend actively including it in the menu for everyone who monitors their weight, keeps counting calories. Stewed cabbage with chicken will fit into the strictest diet, provided that skinless chicken fillet is used as the meat component.

The cooking process is the same as when preparing smoked hodgepodge: it is better to fry the chicken pieces in a separate frying pan. And here's why: if you mix chicken with cabbage right away, the poultry will extract juice, the cabbage will start to boil in it, and the taste will change significantly. Mix fillet with cabbage, add spices, bring to readiness within 15 minutes.

The total cooking time will not exceed 30 minutes, plus the dish has a huge advantage - it can be eaten even cold, it “sounds” differently, but the taste remains saturated.

To summarize, each housewife can have her own cooking secrets: someone adds fresh tomatoes instead of pasta, others cannot imagine without the spice hops-suneli (and such cabbage turns out to be spicy, oriental, very fragrant). You can add a large bunch of cilantro or mix it with minced meat - there are many variations, and each one deserves to take pride of place in the daily diet.

Braised white cabbage is a hearty, tasty and aromatic dish. Today we have recipes that are familiar, not complicated and win-win.

A simple recipe for cabbage stewed in a pan with carrots and onions. Everything seems to be simple, but there are minor implications. For example, the taste of stewed cabbage is entirely dependent on the cut of vegetables. In particular, the most delicious cabbage is obtained by cutting cabbage on a food processor shredder, carrots on a coarse grater, and onions in half rings with a knife, and nothing else. The only suitable alternative is to cut the cabbage by hand, not too finely or too coarsely.

  • ¼ a small head of cabbage,
  • 2 medium carrots,
  • 1 large onion
  • 2 tablespoons of refined vegetable oil
  • salt,
  • seasoning hops-suneli or other to taste.

  1. Rub the carrots on a coarse grater.
  2. Cut the cabbage into slices approximately 2.5-3 cm thick. Pass them through a food processor shredder or cut them manually across the layers.
  3. Cut the onion in half, and then into thin half rings.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Lightly fry the carrots over medium heat, add the onion after a couple of minutes, and after another couple of minutes add the cabbage. Salt to taste and stir. Reduce heat to minimum.
  5. Further, if the cabbage is not too juicy, add 50 ml of water. If the cabbage is juicy and fresh - a tablespoon of water. Cover tightly with a lid and leave to simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. Stir occasionally. It is very important not to let the cabbage fry; it should not fry, but stew.
  6. 5 minutes before the end of stewing, add the seasoning, mix the cabbage, cover it again, heat it up and turn off the fire. Let stand and saturate with spices for 20 minutes.

Recipe 4: how to deliciously stew young fresh cabbage (with photo)

We will tell you a simple recipe for stewed cabbage in tomato paste with the addition of carrots. We will stew white cabbage, the cooking time is 40 minutes. Stewing young cabbage will shorten the cooking time by about 10 minutes, as young cabbage cooks faster. We give a basic recipe for stewed fresh cabbage, if you wish, you can add chopped sausage, sausages or pieces of chicken fillet to the cabbage.

  • white cabbage - small roach;
  • 1-2 carrots;
  • tomato paste - 2-3 tablespoons;
  • sunflower oil - 30 ml;
  • salt - a teaspoon;
  • bay leaf - 2-3 leaves.

The first step is to chop the cabbage. It is better to do this with a knife, and not in a combine or with a grater. Only by hand is it possible to cut the cabbage beautifully and thinly. We lightly wrinkle the shredded cabbage with our hands so that it becomes softer and lets out the juice.


Peel the carrots, cut off the base. Peeled carrots should be grated on a coarse grater.


Add carrots to cabbage.
We will stew the cabbage in a frying pan. This will require a frying pan with high enough sides so that the cabbage does not fall out of the pan during frying and stirring.
Pour a little sunflower oil into the pan and spread the cabbage with carrots. Add two or three bay leaves for aroma and piquancy.


Fry the cabbage for the first five minutes over high heat, stirring with a spatula every 20-30 seconds, otherwise the cabbage will start to burn. After a few minutes, the cabbage and carrots will become much softer. Add salt and mix the contents of the pan thoroughly.


Next, add tomato paste to the cabbage. To do this, stir two tablespoons of tomato paste in a cup of water. Then pour the water and pasta directly into the skillet.


Cover the pan with a lid and continue to simmer the cabbage over low heat for about 15 minutes (do not forget to stir periodically). The amount of liquid in the cabbage should be controlled. When the bulk of the water has evaporated, the cabbage is ready. Turn off the heat and put the stewed cabbage in a salad bowl. For your information: in the process of frying and stewing, the cabbage will die and decrease in volume by about half.

Recipe 5: how to deliciously stew cabbage with chicken (step by step with a photo)

  • White cabbage;
  • chicken fillet;
  • carrot;
  • yellow onion;
  • salt, spices;

7. When the cabbage is slightly stewed (changes color), you can add another third of the chopped head of cabbage. Stew again. And then add the last portion. If all the cabbage is mixed with meat at once and put to stew, then it will "fall" all to the bottom and decrease in volume up to several times.

Recipe 6: how to deliciously stew sauerkraut in German

Stewed sauerkraut is a traditional garnish for pork knuckle, all kinds of sausages and other meat dishes of German cuisine.

Sometimes cabbage is offered to be stewed with lard, but I recommend butter - this way the side dish will be lighter, because it is to be eaten with meat, which already has enough fat. And lovers of lean cuisine can cook such stewed sauerkraut with vegetable oil. The result will not be worse, I assure you.

There is also a small "fly in the ointment" - a strong sour smell when stewing, so be prepared to air your kitchen.

  • Sauerkraut - 1 kg
  • Onions - 2 medium onions
  • Butter - 100 g
  • Cumin - to taste

We can ferment cabbage ourselves, but it's easier to buy ready-made cabbage on the market. It is advisable to take such cabbage, finely chopped. If you try on the market, then choose acidic, after extinguishing the acid will go away. If your cabbage is cut larger, then before stewing it must be chopped with a knife.

Cut the onion into thin half rings.

Melt the butter in a thick-walled deep frying pan. Fry the onion in oil until golden brown, do not burn (it is better to make a small fire).

Add our cabbage and half a glass of water to the onion, close the pan with a lid and simmer over low heat for 1.5-2 hours. Stir occasionally and add water (boiling water from a kettle) if it has evaporated.

After an hour, add caraway seeds (no more than ¼ teaspoon), you do not need to salt the cabbage. We try for hardness - if the cabbage is soft, tender, then it is ready. If crunchy, simmer for another 15-20 minutes. You can also add some pepper if you wish.

I did it - the cabbage is delicious, it melts in your mouth 🙂
