This is definitely one of the Polish summer favorites as fresh green cabbage is available only then. Very light dish, tasty, healthy. It takes so little to make it. I eat it with fresh young potatoes and sunny side egg. But it can be a side dish to anything, any type of meat (e.g. ribs) as well as eaten alone or with bread.
