Halushki - Cabbage and Noodles image

A simple, yet hearty eastern European dish that is a family favorite. The cheese mixture is indescribable. This dish can be prepared a day or two in advance, then baked just before serving. It also doubles or triples very well for holiday feasts or large parties.

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 9 x 13 pan, 18-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 small cabbage
12 ounces wide egg noodles
24 ounces cottage cheese
8 ounces sour cream
1 egg
1 small mild onion
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Boil noodles, according to package instructions, until al dente. Set aside in large mixing bowl.
  • Dice onion. Saute in 1/3 stick of butter until they start to get a little color, then set aside.
  • Remove stem and chop cabbage into bite-sized pieces (about 3/4 inch). Saute in 2/3 stick of butter until tender and have a little color. Add to noodles.
  • Blend cottage cheese, sour cream, and egg. Add sautéed onions and mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add cheese mixture to noodles and cabbage and mix well. Pour into a glass 9 x 13 baking dish lightly coated with non-stick spray.
  • Bake covered at 350°F for 30 minutes or until heated through. Uncover and bake an additional 10-15 minutes to crisp edges and top layer. Serve hot.
  • DO NOT sauté the onions and cabbage together. The onions will burn before the cabbage is done. This also helps to better distribute the butter throughout the dish.
