German Warm Cabbage Salad (Krautsalat)

By danyell923

German deli. Posted by request. Garlic is optional. Some German Krautsalat recipes do not have garlic at all.

Ingredients

• 1 cabbage, shredded
• 1/4 lb bacon
• 2 cups onions, chopped
• 1/2 cup cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons minced garlic

Preparation

Step 1

Directions:

1 Cut the bacon into tiny bits.

2 Fry it in a big deep frying pan and fish out all the bits after they are crisp.

3 Cut up the onion and garlic and fry them in the bacon fat.

4 When they are brown, pour in the vinegar.

5 Bring it just up to a simmer, add all the cabbage and bacon, toss it as you would a salad, and serve it.

6 The cabbage doesn't cook, but it wilts a little under the hot vinegar.
