Aunt Nellie's Cabbage Fritters

By GratefulSea

I appreciate good recipes for leftover cabbage since I can seldom use an entire head. Of cabbage.

Ingredients

• 2-1/2 cups white cabbage, finely chopped or grated
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
• 1/4 cup crumbled cooked bacon
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except oil; mix well.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat vegetable oil. Don't go any further until that oil is shimmering.

Drop heaping tablespoons of batter into skillet; be sure not to overcrowd. Cook 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until golden.

Remove to a paper towel-lined platter; repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately.
