This was wunderbar! I went heavy on the onions and pepper and served it over buttery mashed potatoes. My Mom had the idea of potatoes on bottom and sharp cheese melted over top, like an inside out shepherds pie! You can add just about any spice to this to jazz it up (try peppers and garlic or curry powder, yumm, i've already created 5 diff dinners from 1 recipe). also, I didn't cook it all the way through. I left it tender but firm and picked a bright green cabbage just so it would look pretty. This also goes well with warm crusty bread.

Very good! I started this in a skillet and finished in a crockpot. I poured in a bottle of German beer so it wouldn't dry out. The aromas were amazing! Also took a shortcut ('cause I'm always in such a doggone hurry =p ) by using bagged pre-chopped cabbage for cole slaw. The prep and clean up were virtually nonexistent. Enjoyed by all 'round the table. Thanks, Bea, for a great dinner!

I make something very close to this however I add a envelope of lipton onion soup mix and a little water, this makes a huge difference and boy is it good for being so easy.

just like Chef Kaydia Ji i served on a bed of mashed potatoes, and with melted cheese on top, for seasonings i used chilli powder, paprika, garlic powder and salt. DELICIOUS me and my husband loved it!
