chop it up with some smoked bacon or lardons or anything bacony and smokey . .

boil til cooked.. drain all but about an inch or less of the water out. .separately fry some onions in butter about 30g and when softened add flour as if making a roux. .about 30g worth.. mix in the onion and butter mix and cook out for a minute then add to the cabbage pot and heat and stir so it thickens the remainder of the water and the onions are evenly mixed thru. .season with pepper ..  salt may not be needed cos of the smoked bacon/ham..  serve. .

if you want a sauerkraut type version add some pickled cabbage from a tin/jar or if you don;t have any of that then just add  a small amount of the vinegar from a pickled cucumber jar or something like that. .not too much or it gets too sour..if it does add some sugar...

Not to everybody's taste but great served with huge continental type sausage  ..either German bratwurst or Polish type boiling sausages who's name I've forgotten atm.. ..but it goes ok as a veg to normal British type dishes too..

Reference:
If it is a savoy cabbage you could give it to a lady who has mastitis and she could put the leaves in her bra and the mastitis will improve. Strange but true.

Didn't work for me. Just after I gave birth and the milk came in I looked like Lola bloody Ferrari. Me mum came up to the hospital armed with these cabbages and I had loads of leaves sticking out everywhere. Despite walking around like something David Bellamy would find intriguing in a dark room it did nothing for the pain (and it was friggin painful).

Reference:
Boil the cabbage with some croutons. Throw in an oxo and leave to simmer on a low heat for 5 minutes. Drain and put some cheese and pickle on top and fry in butter and garlic. Throw in  a bit of jam (or marmalade if you prefer) and add cornflakes (about 5 should be enough). Serve immediately to someone you don't like.
Thats just silly and OTT - FFs who heard of putting cornflakes on top - it should be porridge
