Had cabbage in wholegrain mustard sauce at a carvery yesterday, it was lovely.

Anyone make this?

It was a loose (almost milky) white sauce, with wholegrain mustard & the cabbage was steeped in it.

Googled it but can't find anything that seems it.
Anyone else had this at a carvery?

I've found this

  • Hi I have it was a James Martin recipe:

    1 savoy cabbage (I've used others) shredded, and add about 4tbsp wholegrain mustard, 6fl oz of double cream and s & p.

    Melt some butter in a pan, saute cabbage for few mins, stir in mustard, cream and s&p and heat for 3-4 mins, stirring frequently. HTH

    Brilliant - might have known it was cream:eek: It was worth it:T

    Is it in a book of his?

    Whats it called (its proper name)?

    I usually find if I really like one I like others & I don't have any of his books.
  • Don't know if its in any of his books I found it on BBC food.

    It's just called sauteed buttered mustard cabbage - phew bit of a mouthful lol

    Had a flip through the James Martin books when I was out, but I can't find it in any of his books.

    My MIL used to have it with steak & mushrooms, I haven't had it for ages and it was lovely. She used to buy bags of frozen cream quenelles and just throw a couple of them in the pan of steak & mushrooms and add a tablespoon of mustard.

    Quick & easy, I must give it a try. I don't know if you can still buy frozen cream but it would be easy enough to whip some double up and freeze it in tablespoon portions maybe? Or can you freeze single cream in ice-cube trays? I never use a full tub of cream so I'd rather freeze it than waste it.

    I don't know I haven't seen them for years either, MIL died 15 years ago so I'm going back quite a bit! I haven't looked for them though so you may still be able to get them?

    I think I remember a thread on this at Christmas people asking if they were still available but can't remember the outcome sorry.
