Cabbage and Dumplings

I stumbled upon this recipe at the library and it was our vegetarian meal of this week. Although I am not a vegetarian, it can be cheaper and healthier to work  in a vegetarian meal now and then.

Ingredients

1 head cabbage, slliced

1 onion, sliced 

3-5 stalks celery chopped

flour

water

salt to taste

olive oil

Directions

Boil 4 cups water. Meanwhile, coat large skillet with oil, add cabbage, onion, and celery and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently,

                  

Combine 1 cup flour and 1/2 cup water until dough forms. Season with salt to taste.  Drop dough by spoonfuls into boiling water for dumplings. When dough rises to top of pan, fish out dumplings with slotted spoon and add to cooked cabbage mixture.  Season with pepper, curry powder and caraway seeds.

Cooking Tips

The dumplings according to this recipe are very bland, try adding egg and oil for extra flavor. Also, this recipe needs a sauce of sorts. We tried Worsteshire and Soy sauce and neither one quite fit, so I will experiment further next time /i make this.
