BOILED BACON AND CABBAGE

========================


Serves 4  

2 1/2 pounds of bacon ( a large 'collar' or 'hock piece') 
	- about 4 or 5 inches cubed
1 good-sized cabbage
  
Place the meat in a pot, cover with cold water and bring to 
the boil. Add salt if required. Remove the surface sediment 
and simmer for 30 minutes per pound of meat. 

Quarter the cabbage and add to the pot. Cook gently for 
about 1/2 hour, or until cabbage is cooked to your liking - 
do not overcook! Drain and serve with new boiled potatoes 
and mustard or brown (HP) sauce.
