1 tbls caraway seeds
6-8 black pepper corns

• Peel garlic clove and slice longways in 4. Make an incision in each piece of pork and insert garlic. Season generously with salt and ground pepper
• Melt butter in a large flameproof casserole dish and brown pork all over
• Cut cabbage into wedges removing core and add to casserole along with pepper corns and caraway seeds.

Excellent with jacket potatoes.
