Take out the bacon from the skillet and put to the cabbage but leave the bacon fat in the skillet. Now fry the onion on the remaining fat, add a bit of sugar and salt for taste. When onion is soft mix thoroughly 2 tbs of flour with cold water and add to the onion. Stir carefully and add some hot water from the cabbage. Continue adding and stirring until the mixture is fairly smooth then add everything back to the cabbage. Add salt, pepper, cumin and continue cooking until cabbage is soft.
