    • 20ml white vinegar (about 1 tablespoon)
    • 3 eggs

    • Oil for frying
    • 2-3 smoked sausages, sliced
  • 3-4 tablespoons tomato sauce
  • 100g mozzarella, shredded (about 1 cup)

Directions:

    1. Prepare the Cabbage:
        • In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage with 800ml of water and white vinegar. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes.

      • Drain the water and set the cabbage aside.
    2. Prepare the Egg Mixture:
        • In a separate bowl, beat the 3 eggs. Add salt, black pepper, and oregano.

      • Mix in the chopped green onions and dill.
    3. Cook the Cabbage and Egg Mixture:
        • Heat a little oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

      • Add the drained cabbage to the pan and pour the egg mixture over it. Stir well to combine.
      • Cook on low to medium heat for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set and the cabbage is tender.
    1. Add the Sausages and Sauce:
      • While the cabbage and eggs are cooking, slice the smoked sausages and set aside.
      • After the cabbage mixture is cooked, add the sliced sausages and the tomato sauce to the pan. Stir well.
    1. Add the Mozzarella:
      • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the cabbage and sausage mixture.
      • Cover the pan and cook for another 3-5 minutes on low heat, or until the cheese melts.
  1. Serve:
    • Once the cheese is melted and bubbly, remove from heat and serve hot.

Cooking Tips:

  • Keep the heat low when melting the cheese to prevent the cabbage from overcooking.
  • Add more herbs like parsley or thyme for an extra fresh taste.
