“Here is a recipe I’ve been making lately. It’s from a Russian cooking show on YouTube from chef Olga Matvei. It’s really simple to make, healthy, and cheap. Has a nice buttery flavor, for those who like butter. The translation is my own.”

TOTAL TIME:
45 MIN
INGREDIENTS
¾ cup sour cream
3 heaping soup spoons of mayonnaise
½ cup melted butter
3 eggs
½ cup flour
2 heaping tsp. baking powder
Salt to taste
Pre-heat an oven to 350 degrees. Shred the cabbage thinly. Salt the shredded cabbage and mix with hands, squeezing to soften. Add melted butter to cabbage and mix with a spoon. Butter the interior of an oven dish, add the cabbage, and spread it evenly.
In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and sour cream. Add salt. baking powder, and eggs, and whisk together. Add flour and whisk to an even consistency.
Spread the batter evenly over the cabbage, all the way to the edges of the casserole.
Bake in a 350-degree oven for 35-40 minutes, or until done. The top should be browned, but soft and spongy. Allow to sit for 20 minutes before serving, so the top firms up.
