Steps:
- 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!

HALUSKI (PAN-FRIED CABBAGE AND NOODLES)
Haluski is a pan fried dish that both of my grandmothers used to make of butter, onion, cabbage and noodles. It makes a delicious main or side dish, whatever you're in the mood for. I personally like to let my cabbage get a little brown, but adjust your cooktime as necessary to your preference. The serving sizes will depend on how you are serving it.

- In a separate large saucepan, boil the egg noodles in water until cooked. Drain noodles and mix in butter.

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.

Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh cabbage. If using store-bought cabbage, rinse it well to remove any pesticides.
- If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a large nonstick skillet.
- Be sure to cook the cabbage over medium-high heat. This will help it to brown and caramelize.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you do, the cabbage will steam instead of fry.
- Season the cabbage with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Serve the halushki immediately, while it's hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Halushki is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's made with just a few simple ingredients, and it can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it mild or spicy, with or without meat, halushki is sure to please everyone at the table.
