I bought this one-half caput of savoy cabbage at Jaya Grocer as well as I had no sentiment what to produce alongside it. As e'er whenever I come across something new, I but purchase it first, mean value later.
Savoy cabbages expect real pretty, alongside lacy leaves as well as it comes nicely greenish dissimilar the regular cabbages. Since I’ve never eaten savoy cabbages before, I had no sentiment how it sense of savor like. So, I improve google for a recipe. I don’t desire stir fries or salads. Nor produce I desire to produce meat rolls alongside it, since it’s entirely a one-half head, the leaves volition non last suitable. Then I saw a recipe on BBC Good Food, savoy cabbage soup alongside potatoes, sounds yummy as well as topped alongside crispy bacon!!!
Here’s my outset attempt, cooking alongside savoy cabbage.
If you’re thinking of serving this equally a side dish, perhaps you’d similar to mean value twice. It’s as well as then hearty that it tin last a repast on its own. This component is plenty to feed iv adults.

My wife as well as kids loved this as well as all were amount from but having the soup.
