Step 1

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the cabbage, caraway seeds, salt and pepper and combine. Stir in ¼ cup water or broth, lower the heat to medium-low, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, and sprinkling in a bit more water throughout the cooking process (to keep the mixture from drying out) until the cabbage is soft and tender, about 25 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, cook the noodles in boiling salted water until al dente or slightly softer, drain, and set aside.

Step 4

When the cabbage and noodles are both ready, toss them together, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley for color, if desired. Serve hot or warm.

Step 5

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat before eating.
