1 head savoy cabbage (about 2 lb/1 kg)
2 tbsp (25 mL) butter
1 leek (white and light green parts only), thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup (125 mL) vegetable stock
1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
1/4 tsp (1 mL) each pepper and ground nutmeg
2 tbsp (25 mL) all-purpose flour

Preparation:
Quarter cabbage lengthwise; cut out and discard core. Thinly slice cabbage crosswise; set aside.
