Prep the veggies.

    2 large green cabbage (or less for a smaller portion), 1 medium yellow onion (thinly sliced)
  • Finely dice the carrots and bell pepper and set them aside.
    1 large carrot (finely diced), 1 red bell pepper (finely diced)

Pre-heat the oven: to 400°F/ 200°C.

    Brown the sausages.

    • In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the sausages on all sides.
      1 lb sausage (thinly sliced)

    Cook the aromatics.

    • Add onions, carrots, and peppers, cooking until softened.
    • Stir in the cabbage by adding half and let it cook down for a few minutes.
    • Add the rest of the cabbage and the canned tomatoes.
      1 can diced tomatoes
    • Add the water and bring everything to a gentle boil.
      3 cups water

    Season.

    • Salt, pepper, paprika, and any herbs you like.

    Finish in the oven.

    • Put the lid on the casserole and place it in the oven.
    • Bake at 400°F/200°C for 1 to 2 hours or until the cabbage is soft and cooked through.
    • Take the lid off and let it bake for another 10 minutes.

    Serve.

    • Spoon into bowls and enjoy with crusty bread and fresh peppers (if you like a bit of spice). I also recommend serving with a spoonful of sour cream for a bit of freshness.
