By Lori Ross for Cooking Challenge One - Hot Vegetarian Pastas from Kathy Dismukes, Alexandria, VA. 

This is an easy, addictive, luscious pasta dish based on an Austrian classic dish.  It tastes far better than it sounds!

1 large yellow onion, peeled
1/2 head large cabbage, cored
6 tbsp butter
1 tbsp vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lb egg or other noodles

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, thinly slice onion and set aside. Thinly slice cabbage and set aside.  Melt butter and oil together in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring often, until lightly browned, 6–8 minutes. Add cabbage, season to taste with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until cabbage begins to brown, 5–8 minutes.  Cook noodles in boiling water until just cooked through, 6–8 minutes. Drain noodles; add to skillet with cabbage, and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes more. Adjust seasonings.
