Ingredients
- 1 head cabbage chopped
- 1 pkg puff pastry sheets thawed. THIS IS IMPORTANT!
- 1 red potato chopped
- 1 red onion sliced
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 3/4 cup half and half cream, or milk
- 4 teaspoons salt
- 3 teaspoons pepper
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 beaten egg
Instructions
- Be sure to take the puff pastry out of the fridge an hour before you plan to bake this dish! And when I say out I mean OUT of it's wrappings, too!
- Butter the bottom and sides of a 9 by 13 casserole dish. Set aside.
- Cover the bottom of a large skillet with water and add 1/2 the head of chopped cabbage. Simmer on medium heat, turning often, until cabbage is getting tender and translucent. About 5 minutes. Place the cabbage in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking. Set aside. Repeat with remaining cabbage.
- In the skillet melt butter on med-high heat adding the potato and onion when butter is melted.
- Saute the potatoes and onions until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir them into the cabbage and pour the whole mixture into the bottom of the casserole pan.
- Turn the skillet to medium-high heat and add the 2 cups of vegetable broth, salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Bring to low boil.
- Whisk the milk and flour together in a small bowl until smooth. Turn the heat to low and pour the milk/flour gently into the vegetable stock whisking constantly.
- Gently heat, while stirring, for about 2 minutes allowing the mixture to thicken. Pour the stock mixture over the cabbage, onions, and potatoes in the casserole pan. Stir gently to mix.
- Cover the cabbage, onions, potatoes, and broth mixture with puff pastry. Press the pastry down and in the pan sealing the edges and trimming as needed.
- Brush the top of the pastry with the beaten egg.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown in a pre-heated 400 degree oven.
Notes
Try adding diced ham or bacon with the onion and potatoes to give this dish the meat component. It would be outstanding with the addition!
