Grandmother's Cabbage and Noodles
Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 head cabbage, cored and chopped
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 1 (12 ounce) package farfalle (bow tie) pasta
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked ham, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 2 pinches white sugar, or to taste
Instructions
1
Heat a substantial amount of butter in a large cooking vessel over a moderate-low heat setting; cook and blend the cabbage and onion until they become extremely soft, taking approximately 30 minutes to achieve this tender state.
2
Prepare a large container by filling it with water that has been lightly seasoned with salt; bring the mixture to a vigorous boil. Introduce bow tie pasta into the pot and return it to a rolling boil, continuing to cook until the pasta reaches a tender yet slightly resilient texture, which typically takes around 12 minutes.
3
Carefully drain the pasta in a colander and set it aside for further use. Combine water and cooked ham in the cabbage mixture, allowing them to heat through together.
4
Gently incorporate the bow tie pasta into the ham and cabbage mixture, stirring until everything is well combined and heated through.
