1/2 md Cabbage

NOTE: I try and cut down on the amount of marg * 3 times the normal amount
used to cook potatoes. I just cover them and add water if necessary.

In a large pot, fry onion and cabbage in margarine slowly till tender and
brown, about 25 minutes. Boil potatoes till cooked. Add tomatoes and fried
onion and cabbage. Season to taste. Simmer 30 minutes. Sausage can be browned
