Braised Veggies ~ German Style

I think Germany was my favorite part of Epcot. Since I’ve been there, I clearly have a full understanding of German food. It’s all brats and beer, right?

As it turns out, The Chef says they have veggies in Germany too. And these braised ones would definitely be a great side dish… for the brats I assume they eat at every meal.

1 ounce of butter 1/4 cup of yellow onions, sliced thin 1/4 cup celery, cut into 3 inch pieces 1/4 cup carrot, small diced 1/4 cup cabbage, large diced 2 garlic cloves, minced 1/2 ounce of honey 5 ounces of German beer salt and pepper to taste

1. Melt butter in a pot.

2. Add all of the veggies. Season with salt and pepper. Cook over low to medium heat until well softened.

3. Add honey and beer and simmer until tender. Be sure not to over cook because they will get mushy.
