  • Small head of cabbage
  • 2 tbsp. margarine or butter
  • 1 heaping tbsp. flour
  • 1 tbsp. sugar
  • ¼ cup cold water

Chop a small head of cabbage very fine and soak in water. In a saucepan melt 2 tbsp. margarine or butter, add 1 heaping tbsp. flour, salt and pepper to taste, and 1 tbsp. sugar. Blend well together and add ¼ cup cold water.
