Preparation
Step 1
Before cooking, soak the prunes in cold water. Shred the cabbage into moderately thin strips – avoid slicing it too finely. Cut the onion into small cubes.
Step 2
Drain the prunes and cut them into pieces.
Step 3
Heat the sunflower oil in a frying pan and cook the onion until softened. Add the cabbage and prunes in alternating layers, seasoning each layer with salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring regularly.
Step 4
Add spices to taste. Thyme, sumac and ground pepper work particularly well. Continue cooking until the cabbage reaches your preferred tenderness.
