Meat and cabbage

How to make it

1. 1

   Wash the meat in lukewarm water, cut it into suitable pieces, dry it, and dredge it with flour.

2. 2

   Place it in the pot in layers with the cleaned, cut-up cabbage and the peeled potatoes; put the fattest pieces at the bottom of the pot and finish with a layer of the cabbage; sprinkle salt and pepper in between.

3. 3

   Pour on just enough boiling water for it to barely cover. Simmer gently under a lid for 2 hours. Skim it and stir it often. — Well suited to the hay box.

4. 4

   NB. Let the cabbage come to a boil or stand for 10 minutes in boiling water before it is put in the pot.

5. 5

   NB. For this dish, the shoulder and breast of veal, mutton, beef or pork can be used.
