Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 medium onions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon oil (olive)
2/3 cup diced slab bacon
1/2 head white cabbage, about 1 lb.,finely shredded
2 cloves garlic, smashed
salt and pepper
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
1 cup soft breadcrumbs

Steps:

Sweat the onions in the oil in a large pan for a few minutes, then add the bacon, cook until more fat runs.
Mix in the cabbage and garlic, season with pepper and perhaps a little salt, (to taste),depending on the saltiness of the bacon.
Cook for a few minutes until it starts to colour.
Transfer to a shallow baking dish.
Beat the eggs with the milk and pour over.
Sprinkle with crumbs and cook in a 325 degree oven for 1 hour.
Note: to make a complete light meal, increase the amount of bacon, mix the bread crumbs with enough grated cheese to make a generous layer on top, and cook as above.
