Corned Beef and Cabbage Strudel
4 C. cabbage, all varieties, shredded
1 medium garlic clove(s), peeled and minced
1/2 C. chicken broth
2 C. frozen potatoes o’brien, thawed (potato, onion and red pepper)
1/2 tsp. table salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp. caraway seeds
1 tsp. bay leaf, but 1 whole bay leaf preferred
2 T. lemon zest
1/2 pound corned beef brisket, cooked and diced
4 pieces whole-wheat phyllo dough
1/2 C. mustard
Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add cabbage, garlic and broth. Sauté until cabbage is limp, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes. Stir in potatoes O’Brien, salt, pepper, thyme, caraway seed and bay leaf. Cook until potatoes are hot, about 5 minutes. Stir in lemon zest and corned beef. Remove bay leaf. Remove from heat and cool mixture while preparing phyllo dough. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place one sheet phyllo dough, long-side facing you, on paper. Spray with cooking spray. Add second sheet of dough. Spray with cooking spray. Repeat twice more. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spoon corned beef filling across width of dough, starting 4 inches from bottom of dough. Mound filling into a 4-inch wide strip. Lift up bottom 4 inches of dough to cover filling. Using parchment paper as a guide, gently roll up phyllo dough. Place seam-side down on paper-lined cookie sheet. Ends of dough don’t have to be tucked in. Spray strudel with cooking spray. Bake until phyllo is browned, 30 minutes. Let sit 5 minutes.
