1.
Prepare the vegetables: thinly slice 12 ounces Organic Red Cabbage and 4 ounces Yellow Onion, keeping them separate; cut 10 ounces Yellow Potato into 1/2-inch cubes.

Make the pork patties by gently combining:
- 12 ounces Ground Pork NAE
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon dried marjoram
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Shape the mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick oval patties.

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced potatoes, season with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and pan-fry for 12β14 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and tender. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

Add 1/2 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high. Pan-fry the pork patties for 4β5 minutes per side, until browned and their centers reach 160Β°F. Transfer to a clean plate to rest while the cabbage cooks.

Reduce the heat to medium and add 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Cook the sliced onion for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add 1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Add the sliced cabbage along with:
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons light brown sugar
