SPICY JAMAICAN CABBAGE

I love cabbage and this recipe puts a whole new spin on it. It tastes like an entirely different vegetable. Steamed cabbage is one of the fastest Jamaican dishes to prepare.

1 medium cabbage
2 tbs margarine (I don't like cooking with soy butter. I
used 1 tbs olive oil and 1 tbs veg oil)
1 scotch bonnet pepper, chopped and seeds removed
(other hot peppers can be used)
2 sprigs thyme (I used 1/2 tsp dried)
1 crushed garlic, chopped or 2 tsp garlic powder
2 or 3 small slices of green pepper (optional)
1 medium chopped onion
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup water

Slice cabbage leaves into pieces

Saute onion, garlic, pepper, thyme in oil

Add cabbage and water.

Cover and cook until tender.

Add Scotch Bonnet Pepper

Sprinkle with salt and pepper

Simmer for a bit and serve.
