Remarks

This is a recipe with very approximate proportions, so don't hesitate to adapt it to your taste, your habits, or what you have on hand.

If you don't have ham, lardons will work just as well.

As long as you're preparing cabbage, don't hesitate to prepare it whole (as shown in the photos), then take what you need for the recipe, and put the rest aside for another dish.

Keeping: Enjoy immediately.
