Cabbage and beef casserole

This picture doesn't tell the tale of this food. It is really good! And super easy though it does take time hanging around the kitchen.

You need:

I cabbage
500 gr. ground beef
salt

Slice the cabbage thinly. In a heavy bottomed pot cook the cabbage in a little oil on medium low heat. Stirring occasionally. The cabbage needs to cook slow and long for it to brown slightly. Depending on the size of the pot it can take more than half an hour. Don't rush this part. Then cook the beef in a fry pan until just brown. Stir cabbage and beef together with salt to taste. Pour into casserole and bake in oven for about 1 1/2 hours, 325 degrees. Depending on shape and size of casserole it could be ready sooner. Wait for it to be nicely browned.

I served this today with the perfect condiment, a delicious beet relish that a friend gave me. You need something like that to go with it - lingonberry preserves are particularly good.
