Kielbasa and Cabbage

Ingredients
6 slices bacon
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 onion, chopped
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt
3 teaspoons caraway seed
1 large head cabbage, cut into small wedges
1 pound Polish kielbasa

Directions
In a large skillet, fry bacon over medium high heat until browned, turning once. Remove bacon from pan, reserving drippings, and place on paper towels.
Stir water, sugar, onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, seasoned salt, and caraway seeds into drippings. Add cabbage, and gently stir. Cover, and cook over medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes.
Add kielbasa to the pan. Cook, covered, for an additional 10 to 15 minutes. Crumble bacon over top, and serve hot.

  1. This is very good and we also tried it to make a Reuben like sandwich (although I used no onions and only one teaspoon of sugar). Toast some rye bread, add a little thousand island to one slice and scoop some of the cabbage mix to the other, top with a slice of swiss cheese and put in the microwave for maybe 15 secs to melt the cheese. We actually like it better than a Reuben!
