INGREDIENTS

1 3/4	kg	Unsmoked collar of bacon
		without the rind
		up to 2.2
2		Leeks
3		Sticks celery, up to 4
1		Fresh herbs, tied in a
		bundle
1 3/4		Chicken stock or water, up
		to 2.3
1		Green cabbage, chopped and
		cored

INSTRUCTIONS

Soak the bacon in cold water for 24 hours, changing the water several
times. Put the soaked bacon in a large casserole with the vegetables,
herbs and stock or water. Bring just to the boil, skim, turn the heat
right down and keep it simmering at a mere bubble, with the lid on,
for about 30 minutes.  Add the cabbage and continue to simmer for a
further 1 hour (this  sounds like a long time, but you are not looking
for a crispy al  dente result - quite the reverse - the slow cooking
will soften the  cabbage completely. Turn off the heat and allow the
meat to 'settle'  for 20 minutes, then remove it from the pot, transfer
it to a carving  board and keep it hot for a further 10 minutes under a
tight layer of  foil and a cloth.  Using a slotted spoon, lift out the
cabbage and discard as much as  you can of the other vegetables. Lay a
bed of cabbage on each plate,  put a couple of thick slices of bacon on
top, and serve the cooking  liquor in a jug.  DISCLAIMERÂ© Copyright
