Bigus made from fresh cabbage with pork meat and potatoes is an incredibly tasty dish. But I recommend another version of bigos with only sauerkraut.

Bigus made from fresh cabbage with meat and potatoes is a complete dish that can be prepared for dinner. I liked the recipe because everything is prepared without unnecessary hassles and from simple and affordable ingredients. I chopped vegetables, meat (I took pork ham), fried everything one by one in a frying pan, poured water, simmered, and voila...dinner is ready! Nourishing, tasty, appetizing. And most importantly, it’s not fried and there’s no heaviness on the stomach.

Despite the fact that this dish is quite high in calories, it is not heavy on the stomach. It contains vegetables, which become even healthier after heat treatment! And my use of lean beef instead of pork makes the dish even less high in calories. Fresh cabbage bigus with meat and potatoes is a great dinner for the whole family! Thank you very much for the recipe!
