You will be surprised how great it tastes and how easy it is to make. A great side dish or a lunch snack.
So, are you ready to learn how to make cabbage pie? Join me in the bistro kitchen!
A Great Vegetable Dish
Of course, you can cook your cabbage and heat it in a wok but this recipe is really simple and something different.
It is made like a casserole with flour and eggs and it looks similar to a Spanish tortilla.
You do not need an oven to make this pie your stovetop will do just nicely.
I make this recipe in a nonstick skillet as it makes it easier to flip the pie halfway through the cooking time.
There are a lot of versions of the pie but what I love about recipes like this is that you can customize it to your liking.
Especially in Eastern Europe, you can find many different cabbage pie recipes.
Cabbage Pie Ingredients
To make this pie casserole you need a number of ingredients. Have the following ready when you start:
- Green cabbage
- Vegetable oil
- Onion
- Eggs
- Flour
- Salt
- Pepper
- Cheese optional
How To Make Cabbage Pie
To make this casserole start with thinly slicing the small green head of cabbage and put it in a big bowl like this OXO mixing bowl.
Then finely dice the onion and add to the cabbage in the mixing bowl. Season it with salt and pepper.
Beat the eggs in a small bowl and add them to the cabbage as well.
Sprinkle the flour over the cabbage and stir it through with tongs into a cabbage mixture.
Keep on mixing the ingredients until all of the sliced cabbage is coated with the flour, egg mixture.
Heat a nonstick skillet and add vegetable oil to medium warm. Then add all of the green cabbage into the skillet and press it down into a pie with a spoon.
It looks similar to a Spanish tortilla that you can find on our other website the Tortilla channel.
Cover the skillet with aluminum foil and turn the stove to medium-low. Let it simmer for 15 minutes.
Then turn the pie. Do this by sliding the pie out of the pan on a plate. Turn the skillet upside down so you can cover the pie.
Now turn the pan and plate so the pie is in the pan again. Put the skillet back on the stove.
Sprinkle the casserole with cheese, this is optional. Cover the pie with the foil and let it cook for another 10-15 minutes.
Remove the pie from the pan. Cut in wedge and serve immediately.
Cabbage Casserole Ingredients Options
To make even more your own hearty pie you have several options to add to the ingredient list.
You can add:
- Cheese – any from parmesan to feta, mozzarella, Gouda, or Gruyere
- Garlic – either fresh garlic or garlic powder
- Bacon – you can use sliced bacon strips or cubes
- Ham – finely diced ham is a great addition
- Sausages – take the sausages out of the skin. Cook the sausage meat and break the meat in a skillet
- Shredded chicken – add shredded chicken to your cabbage mixture
- Mayonnaise – add mayonnaise to the eggs before adding it to the cabbage mix
- Sour cream – same as the mayonnaise add sour cream to the eggs before adding it to the cabbage
How To Store Cabbage Casserole
There are several ways to store the cabbage casserole. In all cases let the cabbage pie cool down first before storing.
- Refrigerator – you can store the cabbage pie in the refrigerator. You can wrap the cabbage wedges in aluminum foil, in a Ziplock bag, or in an airtight food container. You can store for up to 2 days
- Freezer – if you want to store it longer you can freeze the casserole. Put the pie wedges in aluminum foil, Ziploc bag, or in a food container. You can store for up to 3 months
Reheat Cabbage Pie
You can easily reheat the pie in several ways. If you put the pie in the freezer thaw it first in the fridge overnight.
You can reheat the pie in:
- Oven – preheat the oven to 350℉ with a baking tray in the oven. Put the pie wedges in the oven wrapped in foil and heat for 10 minutes or until warmed through
- Air Fryer – preheat the Air Fryer to 350℉ and put the pie wedges wrapped in foil in the Air Fryer for 7 minutes or put in unwrapped for 5 minutes
- Cast-iron skillet – you can also reheat the pie in a skillet like these amazing cast-iron skillets from Uno Casa. Preheat the skillet and add olive oil about a teaspoon per wedge. Add the wedges and warm slowly. This will take about 10 minutes
