Serves: 6
 

Ingredients:

1 1/4 pounds green cabbage
2 cups water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/4 pounds potatoes -- peeled and quartered
1 cup chopped leeks -- white part
1 cup milk
1 dash ground mace
1 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup melted butter
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
 

Preparation:

In a large pot simmer the cabbage covered in 2 cups of water and the oil for 10 minutes (I do it longer). Drain and chop fine; set aside and keep warm. In a small pot bring the potatoes and water to cover to a boil and simmer until tender. In another small pot, simmer the leaks in the milk for 10 minutes and then keep warm. Drain the potoatoes and puree them into a large pot. Add the leeks with the milk and the cooked cabbage. Beat until fluffy. Season with mace, salt and pepper. Mound on a serving platter/dish and top with melted butter. Garnish with parsley if desired. Note: you have to use butter and not oleo for this
