Admittedly, this Keilbasa-Cabbage Stir-Fry is an "oddball" combination of ingredients. I guess that is why it caught my eye! The key is to have your "mise-en-place" (the French phrase mise-en-place means to gather and arrange the ingredients and tools needed before you start cooking). It was very flavorful and had a great texture. You could easily adapt this recipe to suit your taste.

  • Prep: 15 mins
  • Cook: 35 mins
  • Yields: 4 Servings

Ingredients

5 garlic cloves, finely grated

¼ cup apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons white miso


1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 cup walnuts, chopped

3 - 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

Kosher salt

14 ounces kielbasa sausage, chopped into ½“ pieces


½ medium head of cabbage (about 1 pound), cored, cut into 2" pieces

Freshly ground black pepper


4 celery stalks, leaves reserved, sliced on a diagonal

4 large eggs (optional)

¾ cup dill, chopped

Directions

1Whisk garlic, vinegar, miso, mustard, and 3 tablespoons water in a small bowl to combine; set sauce aside.

2Combine walnuts and 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet, preferably cast iron, and set over medium heat. Cook, stirring often, until nuts are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a large plate and season with salt.

3Wipe out skillet and add 1 tablespoon oil, then sausage. Cook over medium-high heat, undisturbed, 3 minutes. Stir and continue to cook until sausage is mostly crisp and rust-colored, about 3 minutes longer. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to plate with walnuts.

4Add half of the cabbage to the skillet and stir once to coat in oil. Cook (still over medium-high), undisturbed, until charred underneath, about 4 minutes. Add remaining cabbage, stir, and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 6 - 8 minutes. Season with salt and lots of pepper. Return walnuts and sausage to pan; add sliced celery and reserved sauce. Cook, stirring, until coated, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat; season with more salt and pepper if needed.

5If topping with an egg, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Crack eggs into skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook until edges are browned and crisp and whites are just set but yolks are still runny, about 5 minutes.

6To serve, stir dill and celery leaves into stir-fry. Divide among plates and top each with a fried egg if desired.
