Ingredients
White cabbage – 350 g
Pickled cucumbers – 160 g (3 pcs.)
Onions – 130 g (1 pc.)
Tomato paste – 25 g (1 tablespoon without a slide)
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the onion for 2-3 minutes, until transparent.
Add cucumbers and fry for a couple of minutes.
Cut the cabbage into long, thin strips.
Add cabbage, tomato paste, sugar to the onion with cucumbers, salt, and pepper a little (keep in mind that the cucumbers are salty) and add 150 ml of warm water. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 25-30 minutes. Add more hot water if necessary.
We serve cabbage stewed with pickled cucumbers warm as an independent lean dish, or as a side dish for meat dishes.
