Egg Noodles w/Cabbage and Browned Onion (haluski)
(Serena Cosmo, Ultimate Pasta & Noodle Cookbook, modified)

2T oil
1/2# Kielbasa, diced (3/4#, cubed)
6 1/2T butter, divided (4 1/2T)
2 large yellow onions, diced (1)
1 1/2# green cabbage, chopped (1 cabbage, just over a pound)
3/4# wide egg noodles
salt & pepper

Saute sausage in oil until browned and crispy. Transfer to a bowl.

Add 3T (2T) butter to skillet and saute onion til soft, about 10 minutes. Add 3T (2T) butter, cabbage, salt (1 1/2tsp, approx), and pepper. When it starts to sizzle, turn down heat, cover, and cook til very soft and brown, stirring occasionally, 12-15 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook and drain noodles, saving 1/4c pasta water. Return pot to stove, turn heat to high, add 1/2T butter and reserved pasta water. Add drained noodles and toss until water is absorbed. Add kielbasa and cabbage-onion mixture and toss well. Cook for a couple of minutes, tossing gently. Adjust seasoning and serve.

The package of kielbasa was 3/4#, next time, I'll probably just use half of it. We were short an onion, but it was still good. The recipe says it serves 4, but we had enough for 6-8.

Also excellent with deer sausage and homemade noodles (setting 5 on the KitchenAid was maybe a tad thick, though)
