"Pasta" with Cabbage and Anchovy

I was looking through a food magazine and I thought something like this would be delicious and simple to make.

Ingredients:

• ¼ head (small) cabbage
• 4 anchovy fillets (about 1/3 of the can)
• 18 wontons 
• 1 tablespoon butter
• Side note I: When I went to Target I couldn’t help but pick up a pack of butter. I love butter. And butter loves me. 
• Salt and Pepper

1) Take wontons and cut into ¼ inch strips. 

Side note II: Admittedly, it might be easier for most people just buy some dried pasta. Although I thought the end product tasted good, the “pasta” did stick together after I boiled it.

2) Cut cabbage into ¼ inch chunks.

3) In a large skillet heat butter and pour about a ½~1 tablespoon of olive oil from the anchovies into the pan.

Cook cabbage. While cabbage cook take anchovy fillets and cut into small pieces.

4) Add anchovy into skillet.

5) Taste. Then salt and pepper.
Side note III: It’s important to taste because there’s a bunch of salt in the anchovies. If you don’t taste you may be wayyyyy over salting your dish than need be.

6) While cabbage and anchovy cooks, quickly cook pasta. Only 3~4 minutes.

7) Drain pasta and add to skillet.

8) Serve.

Cost breakdown:

• Cabbage: $0.78/4= $0.20

Total: $0.20+$0.36+$0.53+$0.08= $1.17
