6 slices of bacon*, cut into thirds
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
1 head cabbage, cored and sliced
1 white onion, sliced
1 pinch white sugar
DIRECTIONS
Place the bacon into a large pot over medium heat.

or until bacon is crisp. Add cabbage, onion, and sugar to
the pot; cook and stir continuously for 15 minutes, until
tender.

Tip:
If you like your bacon a crisp, remove it before you add the cabbage, add the bacon when it ready to service.
The dish looks delicious. Gonna make cabbage for dinner today. One ingredient was missing from the list: 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Also I notice that the cabbage is in a skillet but in the directions you are cooking in a pot. For people who are not seasoned cooks this could be confusing. One last thing; I would suggest using EVOO as a healthier choice for oil rather than vegetable oil..
