• Saute for 8 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
• Transfer this to a 10x15 inch roasting pan.
• In the same skillet over high heat, combine 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil, half (1 1/4 pounds) of the cabbage, and 1/2 teaspoon crushed caraway seeds.
• Saute, stirring often, until this cooks down, about 5 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer this to the roasting pan and repeat with another 1/2 tablespoon of oil, the remaining half (1 1/4 pounds) of the cabbage, and the remaining crushed caraway seeds.
