Preparing young cabbage with smoked plums is simple and does not require much time. It's essential to adhere to a few principles, particularly the proportions. Too much plum will give the dish an overly smoky, intense flavor. Here is the step-by-step recipe.

Ingredients:                              

• 1 young cabbage
• 3.5 oz smoked plums
• 1 onion
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 carrot
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh dill for garnish

Preparation:              

1. Preparing the ingredients: Wash and chop the cabbage, and cut the smoked plums into smaller pieces. Peel and dice the onion finely. Peel and chop the garlic, and grate the peeled carrot on a large-hole grater.
2. Frying: Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot. Add the onion and fry until it becomes soft and slightly golden. Add the garlic and fry for another minute.
3. Stewing: Add the grated carrot and chopped cabbage. Mix everything thoroughly. Add the smoked plums, salt, and pepper to taste. Reduce the heat, cover the pot, and stew the cabbage for about 20-25 minutes until soft. Stir occasionally to prevent the cabbage from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
4. Serving: Transfer the stewed cabbage to a plate and sprinkle with fresh dill after cooking. Young cabbage with smoked plums pairs well with bread, potatoes, or as a side to meat dishes.

Adding smoked plums to stewed young cabbage is a simple way to enrich the flavor of this classic dish.
