Bacon and Cabbage



Bacon and Cabbage          

So technically it’s not bacon at all,
Not really much of a recipe needed for this one, it’s an Irish dish and I used a slow cooker to make it for the first time and it worked well.

Ingredients

  • A piece of gammon (I prefer smoked)
  • Water
  • Cabbage (I mainly use white cabbage, but have also used Savoy, both work well)


That’s it

Chop up the cabbage, put a layer down then add the gammon, then fill the rest of the space with cabbage.
Add some water, maybe around two thirds full
Cook for 6-8 hours
Take the meat out, and let rest for a while
Serve with mashed potatoes

A nice mustard sauce to go with it

  • 25g flour
  • 50g butter
  • 1 tablespoon English mustard
  • 125ml cooking liquid
  • 125ml double cream


Make a roux with the butter, flour and mustard then add the liquid and mix
