This simple yet delicious side dish is the perfect complement to roast pork or chicken, sausages, or corned beef. The wrinkled leaves of Savoy cabbage stand up well to this cooking method, and the buttery sauce clings to them easily, but you can also use regular white cabbage.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Place the bacon in a large Dutch oven and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 6-8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
- Drain almost all the rendered fat from the cauldron, reserving about 1 tablespoon, and add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once the butter has melted, add the broth, nutmeg, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and season generously with pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes to develop the flavor.
- Add the cabbage, bring the liquid to a simmer over low heat, and cover the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is very tender, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper if needed. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in the microwave or a small saucepan and drizzle over the cabbage. Just before serving, top the cabbage with the fried bacon.
