Ingredients

Convert cups to grams →

  • 500 g (1.1 lb) pointed cabbage
  • 240 g (8.5 oz) cooked white beans, drained
  • 400 g (14 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 100 g (3.5 oz) onion
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 800 ml (3 1/2 cup) water
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp salt

Method

  1. Wash and core the cabbage, then cut its leaves into wide strips. Dice the onion and rinse the beans.
  2. Soften onion in oil for 5 minutes. Add cabbage and stir for 3 minutes, until it begins to wilt.
  3. Add tomatoes, water, oregano and salt and simmer for 12 minutes. Add beans and heat for 5 more minutes; the cabbage should be tender but intact.

Tip: Untested: check tenderness and thickness on your own stove. Quantities are intended for four servings and have not been measured in practice.

Food safety: Raw kidney beans contain toxic phasin: soak dried beans, discard the soaking water and boil them vigorously for at least 10 minutes before cooking them further.
