- 16 oz package egg noodles
- 4-5 cups green cabbage thinly sliced
- 1 onion thinly sliced
- ½ cup seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1 cup cottage cheese optional but recommended
- 1 tablespoon butter plus more if needed
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- coarse salt
- freshly ground pepper
Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the egg noodles and cook according to package directions.
While noodles are cooking, heat half the olive oil on medium high heat, in a large frying pan. Add the breadcrumbs and toss to combine with oil. Toast until golden brown about 3-4 minutes.
Carefully remove breadcrumbs from the pan and set aside in a small bowl. Once the pan has cooled enough, wipe it with a paper towel to remove any leftover crumbs.
In the same pan, turn the heat back on to medium high and add the remaining olive oil. Add the onions and a pinch of salt and sauté for about 3 minutes until translucent. Add in the cabbage and another pinch of salt. It will seem like a lot of cabbage, but it will wilt down significantly. Cover the pan with a lid for about 3 minutes. This will help speed up the wilting process and allow the cabbage to begin to brown.
Remove the lid and sauté cabbage until it is completely wilted and caramelized (golden brown). This may take another 10 minutes or so.
Add the cooked noodles to the pan with the butter and gently toss to combine everything together. If noodles seem dry, add more butter or olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Top with some of the toasted breadcrumbs and a dollop of cottage cheese.
