Savoy cabbage   is tender and sweet tasting.It is  high in vitamin K, vitamin C and fiber.I love this cabbage and here is a nice savoy cabbage pie receipe I would like to share with all.
This has to be SERVED  HOT







Step 1: Indredients

100 gr onions
6 tea spoon cooking oil
200 ml meat stock
salt -to taste

10 inches diameter baking tray

Step 2: Dough

To make the dough mix together  flour and baking powder.Sift in to a mixing bowl and add other ingredients.Stir with a hand mixer with kneading hook,first briefly at the lowest setting,then at the highest setting until the dough is formed.Then roll it into a ball using your hands.Set a side.

Step 3: Prepare the Filling

Peel the onions and cut in to thin slices.Heat the oil in a large pan ,add the onions and slightly braise

Step 4:

Remove all the coarse outer leaves,cut the cabbage in to quarters,and cut the inner stalks.(A B C D in picture)Rinse the cabbage,strain and cut in to very fine strips.While cutting remove all the inner  thick stalks.Refer picture three.

Step 5:

Now add the cabbage and meat stock ,cover and braise for about 15 to 20 minutes stirring occasionally.Finally season with curry powder,pepper and salt.Leave the cabbage to cool down slightly.

Step 6: Base

Set the oven to: Top/bottom heat about  200°C )400° F (Preheated)

Roll out two -third of the dough and line the base of the 10 inches tray.Shape the rest of the dough into a long  cylinder. place round the  base and press against the sides of the tray  to form an edge about 1 1/4 inches.Prick the base several times with a fork.Put the mould on a shelf in the oven and pre-bake the base for just 15 minutes only.

Step 7: Add Eggs

Beat the eggs slightly and stir it to the cabbage mixture which is already cooled.

Step 8:

Fill  the mixture to the pre baked base.Sprinkle a few cummin  seed on top and bake at the same temperature for 30 minutes.

The cabbage mixture can be seasoned with cummin  seed instead of curry powder.

SERVE  THE SAVOY CABBAGE PIE HOT with any type of light cream.I have put a little bit of sour cream on top.This goes very well.
