This is how my uncle make it (tastes better but not quite as healthy). He makes enough for 10+ people, but I will add my recipe below which is a little healthier. I do not usually use recipes, just throw stuff in there and I think he does the same. You need a pot with a lid to steam the cabbage. You do not need much water because the cabbage will let out a lot of water. I like it very thick so I use barely any water, but my uncle uses more to make it a lot more soupy. He also eats it over rice. You will not need to add salt because the sausage and ham should be pretty salty.
Uncles recipe:
