Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1/4 cup boiling water
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 cups shredded cabbage
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup coarsely crushed potato chips

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Add salt and cabbage to the boiling water, stir and boil 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat but do not drain.
In a bowl, combine eggs, vinegar and mayonnaise, mix in cabbage and cooking liquid.
Pour into a 1 quart casserole, top with cheese and potato chips and bake 25-30 minutes.

Tips:

Select the right cabbage: Choose a firm, compact head of green or Savoy cabbage for the best texture and flavor. Avoid wilted or blemished heads.
Slice the cabbage thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly. You can use a sharp knife or a mandoline to slice the cabbage.
Cook the cabbage until tender: Depending on the thickness of your slices, this will take about 5-10 minutes. You can boil, steam, or microwave the cabbage until it is just tender but still slightly crunchy.
Make a creamy cheese sauce: The cheese sauce is what makes this dish so rich and decadent. Use a good quality cheddar cheese and a flavorful cheese like Parmesan or Gruyère. Make sure the sauce is smooth and creamy, with no lumps.
Layer the cabbage and cheese sauce: Start by layering half of the cooked cabbage in a greased baking dish. Top with half of the cheese sauce, then repeat the layers. Finish with a sprinkling of breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.
Bake until golden brown: Bake the scalloped cabbage in a preheated oven until the top is golden brown and bubbly and the sauce is heated through. This will take about 30 minutes.
Let it cool slightly before serving: This will help the casserole to set and make it easier to serve. Serve the scalloped cabbage hot, garnished with fresh parsley or chives.

Conclusion:

Cheese scalloped cabbage is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it cheesy, creamy, or a little bit spicy, this dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
