Cabbage Baked with Eggs

Total cooking time: 45min

I don’t know how to call this dish: it is not a cake or pie, but it certainly looks like one; it doesn’t seem to be a casserole, but you can bake it in a casserole pan, it does look similar to quiche, but is not exactly a quiche.

I guess at very least it is an omelette, omelette with cabbage. Yes, I know, an unusual combination, but still pretty tasty.

Cabbage omelette doesn’t require a lot of time to prepare, can be served for breakfast or lunch as a dish on it’s own, but it also can be paired with meats as a side dish.

Ingredients:

1lb of white cabbage
2 oz of butter
3 eggs
3 tablespoons of mayo
5 tablespoons of sour cream
6 tablespoons of all purpose flour
1 teaspoon of baking powder
Salt to taste
