From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Fibrous, roughly textured savoy cabbage works well with roasted new-season garlic. The anchovy butter gives a depth and salty flavour, which is very pleasant.
1 savoy cabbage
8 good-quality anchovy fillets
4 tbsp crème fraîche
6 roasted heads of garlic
Slice the cabbage in half then, using a sharp knife, remove the inner core and shred the leaves as finely as possible.
Put a large pot of well-salted water on to boil. Put the anchovies and crème fraîche in a smaller saucepan and place over a very low heat.
Stir continuously until the anchovies disintegrate into the warm cream. Set aside.
Plunge the shredded cabbage into the boiling water and cook for two minutes. Drain and place in a mixing bowl with the garlic.
Stir in two-thirds of the anchovy sauce and arrange on a serving plate. Drizzle over the remaining sauce and serve while warm.
