Did you know that the Carthusian monks also lent their name to a
style of cooking in which cabbage figures prominently (they are
supposed to be vegetarians, but nowadays the term is used for any of
a number of dishes with cabbage or lettuce as a major ingredient).
Preheat oven to 350. Have a large flattish pan half filled with hot
water inside.
Braise the cabbage leaves in a little salted water.
Boil the vegetables for a few minutes until crisp tender (add the
peas 1 min before end of cooking). Drain thoroughly. Toss in 2 T
butter over a high flame. Let cool.
Thickly butter 6 individual souffle cups and press a little more than
1/2 c vegetables into the bottom and sides, lining completely. Break
an egg into each cup. Set cups into pan with hot water. Cook until
eggs are set.
Put a cabbage leaf on each serving plate, and unmold vegetable and
egg over it. The butter is the only sauce.
