Instructions

  1. Prepare cabbage by cutting it into 6 wedges, removing the core, and then shredding or thinly slicing it.

  2. Trim leeks, discarding green parts, and thinly slice; rinse them thoroughly in cold water to remove any sand, then strain.

  3. Melt butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the prepared leeks and cabbage, then sauté, stirring, for 7 to 8 minutes.

  4. Stir in chicken broth, salt, and pepper. Cover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cabbage is cooked but remains slightly crunchy.

  5. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with caraway seeds if desired.
