MOUNTAIN CABBAGE RECIPES

Steps:

• Build a campfire and allow the fire to burn until it has accumulated a bed of coals.
• Cook and stir the sausage, onion, and garlic in a 12-inch cast iron Dutch oven with lid, raised over the coals to medium-high heat, until the sausage is no longer pink and the onion is tender. Stir in the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and hash brown potatoes until evenly mixed. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the hash browns are hot and the peppers are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the top of the potatoes, allowing them to sink into the potatoes. Cover the Dutch oven, and place 6 to 9 coals underneath, and 12 to 18 on top. Allow to bake until the eggs are firm, about 40 minutes. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, cover, and continue cooking until the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix tomato paste, garlic, coriander, cumin, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl.
• Cut cabbage in half through core. Cut each half into 4 wedges. Heat ¼ cup oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Working in batches if needed, arrange cabbage in pan, cut side down, and season with salt. Cook until cut sides are lightly charred, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer cabbage to a plate.
• Pour remaining ¼ cup oil into same skillet. Add spiced tomato paste, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring often, until beginning to split and darkened slightly, about 3 minutes. Pour in water to come halfway up sides of pan (about 1½ cups), season with salt, and bring to a simmer. Nestle cabbage wedges back into skillet (they should have shrunk while browning; a bit of overlap is okay). Transfer skillet to oven and bake cabbage, turning halfway through, until liquid is mostly evaporated and cabbage is deeply browned around the edges and very tender, 40–50 minutes.
• To serve, scatter cilantro over cabbage; top with yogurt and pepper.
