Submitted by gailanng

"I grew up on smothered cabbage, but I think this one can beat them all...tender-crisp and fast. See note for caraway."

Love cabbage, and this was a really quick and easy way to prepare it! I didn't use the caraway.....just not a fan, and enjoyed the cabbage exactly as posted. Thanks for sharing!

Love it, I sometimes use a mix of savoy and green cabbage,add sun dried tomatoes slivers and toss in grated Parmesan cheese or Parmesan cheese blend for variety depending on the entree.

Loved this simple cabbage recipe. So easy and so tasty with the caraway seeds!<br/>My feeling was that it needed just a touch of lemon juice so I added some and it was the best.<br/>I also substituted some butter with some olive oil for a little less fat. Still fantastic!

Delicious cabbage! Sometimes the simplest preparations are the best and this recipe is a perfect example of that. Sauteing the cabbage in the butter allows its sweet flavor to shine and the garlic added just the right amount of savory. Served with plenty of fresh ground pepper and loved this - thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for the Best of 2011 event, recommended by CharlotteJ
