During the summer I get to enjoy many farm fresh fruits and vegetables that I receive through a CSA program. For those who do not know, CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture and it is a wonderful way to support local farmers and receive a lot of great food. One thing I enjoy doing is cooking and a CSA provides ample opportunity to try new recipes. In the spirit of sharing I am going to go ahead and start posting some recipes that I try and like. The first one is a Cabbage and Potato Patty - it is essentially something like a hashbrown with cabbage inside. The recipe:

• 1 cup shredded cabbage
• 2 potatoes boiled and semi-mashed
• 2 eggs, beaten
• Butter or Oil to cook in
• Season to taste

To prepare you mix the cabbage and potatoes together along with the eggs and then season the mixture to taste.  I went with simply adding a little salt and black pepper but I am sure there are many more creative ways to season this.  Heat the oil in a frying pan at medium-high and then add little blobs of the mixture.  Let them fry for about 2 minutes on each side.

Enjoy.
