Preparation

Step 1

Start by slicing the cabbage in half, and then slicing each half into strips. Wash and dry the cabbage strips. Then, in the pre-heated pressure cooker, on medium heat without the top, add the butter, onion and bacon or pancetta. Simmer stirring occasionally until the onions begin to soften (about 5 minutes). Next , add the cabbage and beer.

Close and lock the lid. Turn the heat up to high and when the pan has reached HIGH pressure, lower the heat and count 3 minutes cooking time.

Remove the cabbage to a serving dish immediately so it can stop cooking. Mix and serve!

I make this often with Polish sausage, sometimes adding apples and/or apple juice, very good. But I never thought of adding beer. I tried this and it is excellent! The dark flavorful beer is necessary, please not Bud and its ilk!
