Ingredients
- 100 g shredded ham (or ham hock, 3.5 oz., see notes)
- 150 g white cabbage (5 oz., finely shredded)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 red onion (thinly sliced)
- A handful of fresh dill (chopped)

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon honey (can be omitted)
- A pinch of pepper
- To serve: 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
- 1
Sprinkle the shredded cabbage with a generous pinch of salt and leave for 5 minutes while you prepare other ingredients. The cabbage will release some of its juices. Use your hands to massage the cabbage for 10-15 seconds, to soften it slightly.
