  • Oil for frying
  • 2-3 smoked sausages, sliced

• 3-4 tablespoons tomato sauce
• 100g mozzarella, shredded (about 1 cup)

Directions:

1. 1. Prepare the Cabbage:
      • • In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage with 800ml of water and white vinegar. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
      • Drain the water and set the cabbage aside.
   2. Prepare the Egg Mixture:
      • • In a separate bowl, beat the 3 eggs. Add salt, black pepper, and oregano.
      • Mix in the chopped green onions and dill.
   3. Cook the Cabbage and Egg Mixture:
      • • Heat a little oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
      • Add the drained cabbage to the pan and pour the egg mixture over it. Stir well to combine.
      • Cook on low to medium heat for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set and the cabbage is tender.

1. 1. Add the Sausages and Sauce:
      • While the cabbage and eggs are cooking, slice the smoked sausages and set aside.
      • After the cabbage mixture is cooked, add the sliced sausages and the tomato sauce to the pan. Stir well.

1. 1. Add the Mozzarella:
      • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the cabbage and sausage mixture.
      • Cover the pan and cook for another 3-5 minutes on low heat, or until the cheese melts.

1. Serve:
   • Once the cheese is melted and bubbly, remove from heat and serve hot.

Serving Suggestions:

• • Serve with crusty bread or dinner rolls to soak up the sauce.

• • Pair with a simple side salad for a complete meal.
  • Enjoy alongside a refreshing glass of iced tea or lemonade.
  • Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a little heat.

• Serve with mashed potatoes for a heartier meal.

Cooking Tips:

• • Be sure to drain the cabbage well after soaking in the vinegar solution to avoid excess moisture in the dish.
  • For extra flavor, use smoked mozzarella or gouda cheese.

• Use any smoked sausage of your choice, such as kielbasa or andouille, for added variety.
• Keep the heat low when melting the cheese to prevent the cabbage from overcooking.
• Add more herbs like parsley or thyme for an extra fresh taste.
