Ingredients

Servings:

3 cup	cooked potatoes (cold, roughly mashed)
2 cup	cooked cabbage (chopped and squeezed dry)
1 unit	yellow onion (finely chopped)
2 tbsp	butter
½ tsp	salt
¼ tsp	black pepper

Method

saute5 min
onion softened
Soften the onion in half the butter without heavy browning. Starting with tender onion prevents raw pieces from interrupting the otherwise cohesive potato cake.
mix2 min
vegetables evenly distributed
Fold cold potato, well-drained cabbage, salt and pepper together. Keep some potato texture; beating it smooth makes the mixture gluey.
fry8 min
deep golden crust underneath
Press the mixture firmly into the skillet with the remaining butter and leave it alone long enough to build a real crust. Frequent stirring produces hash instead of bubble and squeak.
fry6 min
second side browned and center hot
Turn in sections or invert the cake and brown the other side. Moderate heat gives the interior time to heat before the crust burns.
