Serbian Cabbage

Total Time: 1 hr Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 55 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 1 medium head of cabbage (shredded fine)
• 1/4-1/2 cup chopped onion (optional)
• 12 ounces evaporated milk (like carnation)
• 1 cup dry breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup butter, cut in small pieces (you might use a bit less)

Recipe

• 1 place cabbage and onions in a shallow 4 quart buttered casserole.
• 2 pour the milk over and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs; dot with butter and sprinkle with paprika.
• 3 cover and bake at 350°f for 30 minutes. uncover and bake an additional 30 minutes or until crumbs are golden brown, and cabbage is tender.
• 4 you can probably substitute low fat or non fat evaporated milk, but don't use regular milk. some magic will occur, and the cabbage develops a wonderful creamy consistency. (the original recipe states unsuspecting guests won't even recognize it as the "dreaded" cabbage, but i don't think i'd go that far.).
• 5 i just say it's comfort food at it's finest.
