Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large skillet or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant, approximately 5 minutes.

02

Step

Add the coarsely chopped cabbage to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage softens and reduces in volume, about 20 minutes.

03

Step

While the cabbage is cooking, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Add the potato gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface, indicating they are cooked through, about 3 minutes. Drain the gnocchi well.

04

Step

Add the cooked gnocchi and cubed ham to the skillet with the cabbage mixture. Stir gently to combine, ensuring the gnocchi and ham are evenly distributed. Continue to cook until everything is heated through, approximately 5 minutes.

05

Step

Season the dish generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.

For a richer flavor, consider using smoked ham or adding a splash of dry white wine to deglaze the pan after cooking the onions.
If you prefer a softer cabbage, cook it for a longer period, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Gnocchi can be substituted with egg noodles. Adjust cooking time accordingly.
Fresh parsley or dill can be used as garnish.
