I do not know what others have done that they do not like this recipe but we have prepared several times and it is a favorite. On one occassion I used a speciality Whole grain HONEY mustard, that came from a XMAS deli gift basket and it was like Emeril's BAM added an extra kick. I use Meille Whole grain mustard. I think for those who do not like it play with varying the spices in amount more if you like spicy/less if you don't. Cabbage is pretty basic so it is all in the combo and amount of spices you use. There is not reason not to find the right combo for your taste and make it a favorite.05/08/10

This was pretty good with a couple of provisos. I increased the curry to 1 TB and added 1 tsp of salt. Without them, it was bland. Also, just try and get six cups of cabbage in a "medium" frying pan. You will need to use a larger pan. It also took much longer than 5 minutes to get palatable, and not raw, cabbage.01/02/08
