Cooks Note
At DinnerTime we love snacking on veggies. This may sound boring, but not when the veg is our special Christmas Cabbage!
This recipe isn’t as quick as the others, but doesn’t require much effort from you at all: just bunge the veg and liquid into a pot, cover and cook on low heat till done! No need to occasionally stir either, if you are too busy dancing/ chatting/ watching cartoons with the kids/ doing what you love in the holidays!
