 1 Red cabbage, shredded with the chef's knife or mandoline finely
 3 Green onions, sliced (green parts set aside separately)
 3 tbsp Butter (or oil)

Heat butter in a heavy pan over medium heat until it just starts to brown and you can smell a nutty aroma. Depending on the amount of butter used and a size of your pan it may take very little time, so don't walk away. At that point add the shredded red cabbage and white parts of the onions. Cook for 10-13 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is softened but still retains some crunch. Remove to a serving platter and garnish with reserved green parts of the onion. Serve.
