Ingredients

  • 8 oz wide egg noodles uncooked
  • 8 tbsp butter
  • 1 small white onion roughly chopped
  • 1/2 large head of cabbage
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • crisp, crumbled bacon optional

Instructions

  • Fill a large pot half way full with water. Lightly salt it, and over high heat bring the water to a boil.
  • Once boiling, pour in the egg noodles, stir, and cook according to the package directions. Transfer the noodles to a colander when done, and drain away all excess water.
  • While the noodles are cooking, get started on the cabbage by adding 6 tablespoons of butter to a large Dutch oven set over medium heat.
  • Once the butter's melted, stir in the cabbage and onion. Cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes or until the cabbage has browned/caramelized and is tender. Salt, to taste.
  • Melt the last two tablespoons of butter in the pot, and add the cooked pasta to the pot, stirring everything to coat. Cook just long enough for the noodles to heat through.
  • If using, stir in the bacon and season the haluski with freshly grated black pepper, to taste.
  • Serve immediately, and enjoy!
