ROASTED CABBAGE & ONIONS
I roast veggies to bring out their sweetness, and it works wonders with onions and cabbage. The piquant vinegar-mustard sauce makes this dish similar to a slaw. -Ann Sheehy, Lawrence, Massachusetts

CABBAGE AND CARAMELIZED ONION TART
When I lived in Paris, I frequented a little savory tart shop in the 15th Arrondissement that always surprised me with odd combinations of ingredients. One of my favorites was a caramelized onion and cabbage tart, which I've reproduced here.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, and cook, stirring, until they begin to sizzle and soften, about three minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt and the garlic. Stir everything together, turn the heat to low, cover and cook slowly for 45 minutes, stirring often, until the onions are very soft, sweet and light brown.Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat in another large skillet. Add the cabbage. Cook, stirring often, until it begins to wilt, then add salt and pepper to taste. Continue to cook for another 10 to 15 minutes, stirring often, until the cabbage is tender and fragrant. Stir in the onions, simmer together uncovered for about five minutes or until there is no longer any liquid in the pan, and remove from the heat.
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 9- or 10-inch tart pan and line with the dough. Beat the eggs and milk in a bowl and season with salt (about 1/2 teaspoon) and pepper. Stir in the onions, cabbage and cheese, and combine well. Scrape into the tart pan, and place in the oven. Bake 40 to 45 minutes until the top is lightly browned.

SAUTéED CABBAGE AND ONIONS
Steps:
- I find that when I buy a good-sized green cabbage and use a small amount in a recipe, the remainder often languishes in the fridge. This is an ideal way to use up green cabbage while it still has some flavor. For this preparation, you can use half or even most of a cabbage. In a large skillet or stir-fry pan, sauté a quartered and thinly sliced onion in some olive oil. When it starts to turn golden, stir in thinly sliced cabbage. Cook, covered, until the cabbage wilts. If the pan dries out, add just enough water to moisten. Once the cabbage is wilted, uncover and cook until both the cabbage and onion begin to brown, stirring frequently. Add a sprinkling of poppy seeds, if you like.
Tips:
- To save time, use a prepared pizza dough or phyllo dough instead of making your own.
- For a crispier crust, pre-bake the dough before adding the filling.
- Use a variety of cheeses, such as mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan, for a more flavorful torta.
- Add some cooked bacon, sausage, or ham to the filling for a heartier meal.
- Top the torta with fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, or thyme, before baking.
- Serve the torta warm with a side of salad or soup.
Conclusion:
Cabbage and onion torta is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this recipe is perfect for busy weeknights or lazy weekends.
